What the what? Junior Seau Committed Suicide

[FirstTimer]

@LATimesfarmer:


Suicide by a shot to the chest? Sounds weird...thought you would usually go for your head.

Nope. No question its CTE related now. This is how Dave Duerson killed himself. It left his brain intact for examination after he passed away.

Beat me to it spiker.

Shotgun to the chest...fuck.

Excellent player.

Wow.....RIP :/

Derrick Thomas
Junior Seau
Lawrence Taylor

My 3 favorite LBers growing up....who the fuck would have bet back then LT would outlive the other two ?

RIP. Helluva player and a tough way to go.

Not good for the NFL.

ESPNews had Jason Babin on talking Seau. The woman asked about life after the NFL, never once mentioning anything about brain related injuries, concussions, dementia, etc. Babin said guys need to find something they're passionate about because they're just normal citizens at that point.



The ESPN talkie treated it like Seau was just unhappy he was out of the limelight.

As much as I hated the teams he was on, I always liked Junior Seau. This is really sad. RIP.

Yeah. He's one of the rare USC players who I came around to appreciate as a pro. Tragic loss.

Wow......just wow....RIP

One of my favorite non-Eagles growing up. RIP Junior. Sorry your life ended like this.

He went out Duerson style, bet on that.

He tried to kill himself two years ago by driving himself off a cliff. Survived that. Went for it again here. To the chest? Obvious moment of clarity is obvious.

As a player...one of the greatest of all-time...
As a man...I've never heard anyone say a bad thing about him.

RIP, buddy.

I thought he killed himself a few years back.

I guess if at first you don't succeed, try again. Right junior?

[Point Blank]

Damn, RIP.

Fuck off.

[ryne candy]

Not surprised by it....was he in the news a few years back? Not being in the limelight AND having a mental illness doesn't help.

RIP Junior

one of the most exciting players to watch in the NFL
