43 yrs old .... 20 years in the NFL, 3 years of college ball, 4 years of high school, and im sure he played peewee ball since he was 5 yrs old

Consussions are to blame. This is happening to a lot of NFL vets.

Hulkotron · « **Reply #12 on:** May 02, 2012, 11:47:29 AM »

It amazes me that eight guys from a pro football team from 1994 are now dead. Those guys should all be like 45-55 today tops.

43 years old. Tragic.

Death WIKI

On May 2nd, 2012, Oceanside police responded to reports of a shot fired at Seau's home there. A witness reported hearing from the police that Seau committed suicide. [19]

yes, shot himself in chest to preserve head.

i guess the head injuries must be really bad.

240 is Back · « **Reply #19 on:** May 02, 2012, 12:10:21 PM »

in 2010, he had a domestic violence charge. Drove his truck off a cliff and survived. Told police he fell asleep.

So maybe this was a 2nd attempt?

Stupid Sport.

Unfortunately, it's turned into launching and hitting rather than tackling. Played as it was intended, it's a great sport.

SHIT, concussion is serious business......and it ain't no fucking Jokes......Goodell is doing a good Job laying down the rules.......R.I.P Seau

at the time he told police "I wasn't trying to kill myself"

I wonder what goes through someone's head that taking their own life seems like an option, can't even fathom it.

hope this asshole left a suicide note for his kids, family and friends at the very least

its funny to me how TMZ is now the source for NEWS and CNN, FOX, NBC, ABC relay their news after
