PART I: Pro Football Hall of Fame players Dick Butkus and Deacon Jones (who passed away June 3, 2013, soon after this interview) engage in a very lively discussion about their extraordinary pro football careers, including the health risks associated with the game and how their playing days compare with today's NFL. Both players have channeled their legendary status toward helping the community: Jones supports urban youth through the Deacon Jones Foundation, and Butkus focuses on student athletes and steroid awareness with his I Play Clean program.
Butkus and Jones are joined by Dr. Larry Santora, medical director of the Orange County Heart Institute and host of "Health Matters with Dr. Larry Santora" television series, which airs weekly on PBS OC. To view other videos, visit www.drsantora.com.
Produced by Chapman University's Panther Productions, "Health Matters with Dr. Larry Santora" is sponsored by St. Joseph Health, St. Joseph Hospital, Biotronik, Churm Media, The Widdicombe Family, Medtronic, Weaver Health Solutions and Abbott Vascular.
