"It's been over a year but I've been under doctors' care and I still am so if I say anything wrong, please excuse me," Force said in his retirement announcement. "But it's time for me to retire. It all made sense to me even though I knew I had medical stuff that I had to address, that do I want to get back in the car and get hit in the head? And I don't."
