Sometime after the breakup of the Eagles, Bob Seger was asked why he thought it happened. He responded with 2 words, what were they?

Glen Frey?

sorry Yankees, not the answer.

There are just SO MANY possible answers...Is it "Don Henley"?..."Sibling Rivalry"?..."Excessive Egos"?..."Cocaine Paranoia"?....

I couldn't find any answer from Bob Seger.
I did however find this article from 1982 that was actually an intersting read(to me anyway)

Eagles May 23rd, 1982 article

'Hotel California'

Jenny, you got the answer. Bob Seger felt that the band would never be able to top Hotel California and thus the impending breakup.

Great job!

you know that was actually the answer in the article I found. I was going to post it but it was more than just 2 words. Stupid me didn't think of just putting 'Hotel California' damn blonde roots...

The Eagles "Hotel California" album sold more than 10 million copies and the LP's title track won a Grammy as the best single of 1976. But the pressures of living up to the expectations of that album caused such tension in the band that work on the follow-up LP, "The Long Run," was a virtual nightmare. In fact, a split occurred in the group during what Henley refers to as the fall of 1980 that was never repaired.
