He was the one player from another AFC West team that I really liked and wanted to see do well.
Very sad. I'm blown away by this... |

Damn.
Lets enjoy football while it lasts. I'm starting to wonder if what we'll have in 10 years resembles what we've been watching the last 20. The "Roman Colosseum" analogies are getting closer and closer to home. These guys really are beating themselves to death out there. Think about that the next time Jamie Harrison takes a cheap shot and then starts roaring about how he's just a warrior when he gets suspended. If a shot like that ever puts someones lights out on the field, just go ahead and start the death clock for the NFL.

I find sucide hard to believe when you have kids, gradkids etc.. Really a selfish act, but I am not him so I can't speculate on the darkness he had in his life. Obviously there is some brain chemistry amiss or it was one to many concussions.

Suicide's not about being selfish, it's about being in so much pain or terror that you literally cannot perceive any other escape than not existing anymore. It's not a decision that's arrived with the full use of one's cognitive abilities. It's brought on by desperation, and trying to rationalize it or trying to hold people suffering from serious mental distress accountable for it is unbelievably dickish (not to mention that it completely misses the point).

What I'm saying is that it's not a ****ing matter of accountability in the first place. It's a horrible thing that happens. Pretending that there's a person to blame instead of it being the result of a confluence of various risk factors is pointless.
