Old fucks like me recall and revere Tim Meamber's enforcer presence on the exceptional '84 "Purple Reign" defense.
Meamber was also a notorious lunatic, on and off the field. Despite being an All Pac-10 linebacker, his NFL career was cut short by drug addiction. Unfortunately, he's continued to have a very troubled life after football. I vividly recall being crestfallen when he showed up on one of my dockets as a prosecutor in the late '90s. Stalin actually did a nice profile on Meamber around the time Sark was hired.
Anyway, today I learned Meamber has filed a lawsuit after getting swindled out of a settlement based on what sounds like a diagnosis of either CTE or Parkinson's disease:

Contract and unfair business practices. Plaintiff is a former NFL football player and qualified for a class action settlement regarding chronic traumatic encephalopathy and Parkinson's disease. Defendant offered "quick" and "easy" loans in exchange for plaintiff's settlement rights. Defendant falsely represented it was offering a "loan" and charged an exorbitant interest rate
