Junior Seau dead, probable suicide

North County Times reporting Seau "found dead by a housekeeper of a gunshot wound to the chest."

Junior Seau Dead Cops Investigating Shooting

Cops are currently at Seau's home just outside San Diego. Seau was 43-years-old ... and leaves behind 3 kids and an ex-wife.

Seau was a beast in the NFL -- skyrocketing to fame thanks to his explosive play with the San Diego Chargers, Miami Dolphins and New England Patriots. The USC standout was selected in the first round of the NFL draft in 1990 and played in the league for 20 years.

Seau was involved in a car accident back in 2010 when he drove his SUV off a cliff in Carlsbad, CA hours after he was arrested for allegedly attacking his girlfriend. Seau later said he was not trying to kill himself ... insisting he had fallen asleep at the wheel.

For this particular issue, I think you're right.

But lets say that Harrison or someone else uses himself like a missile, goes up high and doesn't just hit someone in the dome, but at a bad enough angle to make him a vegetable or flat out kill him. The speeds involved in the game today make it possible, though still unlikely.

The specter of that happening on the field combined with stories like these is going to make the 'gladiator' element of the sport too difficult to just ignore anymore.

A bunch of retired players offing themselves may never get it done (we have an obsession with football in this country), but if someone ever actually dies on the field or shortly thereafter, the image will be too much for the NFL to recover from IMO.

If, like DJ said, someone were to get killed on the field by some idiot like James Harrison, the NFL is done.




I'm thinking it might be standing on the ledge right now. I know it's a huge business, but stuff like this can't be good for business

Most of the country stops smoking cigarettes now. How much could a class action cig case bring?

If the NFL has to fund a multi-billion dollar health care pension, plus pay billions in damages for past torts, they might just fold up.

Is it really shocking that some ex-players of an inherently violent game choose to end their lives violently?

California mayor: Former NFL star Junior Seau dead at 43

Former NFL star Junior Seau, 43, died at his Oceanside, Calif., home Wednesday.

By Robert Hanashiro, USA TODAY

"He was a local hero -- he certainly gave back to the community and to the youth through his Junior Seau Foundation," Oceanside Mayor Jim Wood told The North County Times. "Our thoughts and prayers go out to his family and friends."


Citing a source, the Times reports Seau's body was found by a maid.

Responding to a 911 call, authorities descended on Seau's residence around 12:35 p.m. PT.

In a tragic coincidence, Seau becomes the eighth member of the 1994 San Diego Chargers, who lost Super Bowl XXIX to the 49ers, to die at a young age. The others: Chris Mims, David Griggs, Rodney Culver, Lewis Bush, Curtis Whitley, Shawn Lee and Doug Miller.

San Diego native and current Dolphins tailback Reggie Bush tweeted:

"R.I.P Jr. Seau one of the greatest players to play the game! Damn this one hurts San Diego! One of the greatest to to come from the city."

Seau played linebacker for 20 years in the NFL, earning 12 Pro Bowl nods while being named first-team all-pro six times. A USC product, he was drafted fifth overall by the Chargers in 1990 and played for the Bolts during his prime years from 1990-2002.

He joined the Dolphins in 2003 for a three-year hitch in Miami.

After a four-day retirement following the 2005 season -- Seau deemed it a graduation into the next phase of his life at the time -- he reversed course to spend four final seasons (2006-09) with the New England Patriots. He played sparingly the final two years, joining the club at midseason in both cases, but continued on at the behest of coach Bill Belichick, who valued Seau's legendary work ethic and leadership skills.

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).
