Re: Report: Junior Seau Dead
Speculation is a suicide. Shame.

That's terrible news. Hate to speculate, but years of head trauma can do terrible things. That's why I'm glad Goodell is trying to make the game safer.

Re: Report: Junior Seau Dead
I don't want to get ahead of anything, but if this is a suicide I wonder what the debate is going to look like with CTE and the long term outlook for football. This is very high profile.

Re: Report: Junior Seau Dead
I wonder why ESPN hasn't reported on this yet? Its 12:03 right now and TMZ and Yahoo have had this for over an hour and yet ESPN doesn't even have an "Unconfirmed Report" on their site.
Really sad. He has 3 kids and I guess he texted them all yesterday that he loved them. Was found by his housekeeper this morning. |

Re: Report: Junior Seau Dead
I just read that now 8 players from the 1994 Chargers Super Bowl team have died before the age of 45

Re: Report: Junior Seau Dead
I think back to the Bengals on Hard Knocks, the episode where they did the Oklahoma drill. At the time I thought it was awesome, now all I can think is how it was a bunch of completely unnecessary blows to the head.

Re: Report: Junior Seau Dead
Such a sad end to a wonderful life. Football needs to take even more action to protect the players--especially the youngest ones.
