Oh my...this is very sad.
I knew he had some mental health issues a couple years ago...but I thought he was doing better.

Wow, how sad. Such a classy & solid player.

Messed up. RIP to one of the best LBs to play the game.

Ditto that.
I remember him as a good guy when he played for New England.
-
Helluva guy. I hope he found peace.
-
Very sad news, he was a good guy.
-
rest in peace Jr. What did he have in his brain to do this? He was always a family kind of guy in San Diego...just a shock to his family I am sure..San Diego area as well.
-
What a shame. Prayers for his kids and family.
-
So sad. Prayer up for his family and friends. His poor kids.
-
Damn. I've known about this since I was in the Augusta airport, but it still seems unreal. Everyone loved Seau. This is like losing Earnhardt. Don't watch NASCAR, but he was one of the greats. Junior's mother was a mess. pray for her.
-
One of the best at his position that I ever had the pleasure of viewing. R.I.P.
-
Prayers for those he left behind
-
I suspect the concussions he has gotten contributed to his suicide. The worst form of grief is a parent having to bury a child no matter the age.

I almost posted my expectation of that coming up when I was here earlier. Then while I was out and about I heard Rush mention it. It was just mentioned on the three o'clock news as a possible motive. Now I find your post.
If we just ban full contact football and switch to flag football the fairer sex can fully participate too. :sarcasm:
'course I got a wicked concussion when I was catching, flipped off the mask to look for a foul tip and got caught by the batter on the back swing. Guess we better ban baseball too. And what about 'heading' in soccer? Any problem with that? Ban it.
Now we can all head off to namby pampy land, fat, dumb and happy. :thatsright:

Dave Duerson of the Bears committed suicide by shooting himself in the chest. His death instructions indicated that he wanted his brain donated to medical research because he thought the game may have knocked a few marbles loose. Sorry to be graphic, but it is a horrific thing to contemplate for those who gave their life for the game.
RIP Junior and may God's rest be upon your family.

I don't think he said that in his post. His problems could very well stem from concussions. Why is that wrong to state the obvious?

No he didn't but then I didn't say he did (although it may seem that I implied that with the italics and sarcastic tag). It appears the latest bugaboo of the NFL is concussions. There may be something to that line of thought. I have no training in the field so will have to wait until all the facts are in.
