RIP JUNIOR SEAU---NFL FOOTBALL

[240 is Back]

he texted them yesterday that he loved them.    pretty damn sad.  43 years old, way too young.  he must have been a tortured guy.

TMZ had it at least a half hour before espn broke it.

An absolute animal on the football field. Seau was scary good in his prime. Just a beast. I think he played 19 seasons. That's an impressive tenure but a lot of accumulated hits and blows to the head over the years.

he killed himself so his brain could be studied.  poor dude. He kicked ass on the field.

RIP, Incredible player.

The concussion excuse is just pure bullshit.  He was a nutcase most likely his entire life and warning signs were surely present.  Boxers have been taking worse hits to the head for years with no protection, yet their suicide rate is not excessively high.

LOL at anyone who thinks football tackles created this.

I guarantee you a West Virginian coal miner has it more rough than little baby coward Junior Seau.  Same with the construction worker who operates a jackhammer day in and day out.  Thats way more grueling than dancing around like a fairy and chasing a black man and his balls around artificial grass for under an hour not even a quarter of a year.

WOW !! R.I.P Jr.

how often do boxers fight?
16+ games of nfl a year. 100+ hits a game. it all about reps.

Ever heard of sparring sessions whilst not fighting?  Football is a joke.

One of my favorite all time players.

Sad way to go.

[funk51]

if it wasn't for the rassler christopher nowinski no one would give a shit about concussions. there is a link between concussions and als lou gehrigs disease too. when i played hs football some guy got a concussion didn't remember what day it was, and the coaches told him to go home and come back when he wanted to play, pussy.

[Fury]

Sad to see one of the greats go out like that. Will most likely be seeing more and more of this as the guys from the last 20 years get older and start suffering more and more from the problems.

I think someone got swirlies from the HS football team

You're a tool.

And a pussy. Hope this helps.

[Ronnie Rep]

RIP Junior! One of the best linebackers ever, and a great guy off the field!

[jaejonna]

Basically anyone who has played football at that level will have brain damage....a warrior's death

[tommywishbone]

He won't recover.

Suicides are committed by all kinds of people and happen in all corners of the world. Among others, pro athletes suicide, young children suicide, poor miners suicide, old people suicide, doctors suicide, famous authors suicide, and jackhammer handling construction workers suicide. In any case, the circumstances are always sad and unfortunate. Having watched the reports, it's hard not to moved by how Seau's shocked family is braving on and trying to make some sense of his death. It apparent he was loved, which makes his death even more sad.

Selfishness has many faces...

Depression is  very common among elite athletes after retirement.

[Nails]

imagine doing something since you were 5 or 6 years old living that life and all of a sudden its over after 38 years, must be fucking hard, he should have gotten into coaching and lessen the depression that comes with retirement
