Junior Seau dead, probable suicide
North County Times reporting Seau "found dead by a housekeeper of a gunshot wound to the chest."
https://twitter.com/#!/LATimesfarmer...55054793560065 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. http://www.tmz.com/2012/05/02/junior-seau-dead/ Last edited by Quesadilla Joe; 05-02-2012 at 12:35 PM.. |

Yep. And it is sheer lunacy. There is implied consent there that should relieve the NFL of any punitive liability.

Wow. Didn't see that coming, but probably should have.
It's probably not just concussions, but the proliferation of both performance enhancing drugs and recreational drugs, in addition to concussions, basically the same thing that's been plaguing professional wrestling in the last decade. It's a pretty vicious cocktail, and the NFL is probably counting their lucky stars that he wasn't far gone enough to do what Chris Benoit did. |

Speak o' the devil:
Go **** yourself, Harrison. Better yet, go off yourself. The players need to be a hell of a lot more cognizant of this stuff among themselves. There hasn't been honor among thieves with a lot of these thugs in a very long time. Maybe at some point asshole headhunters like Harrison will realize that there are consequences to scrambling someone's !@#$ing brain.

I don't know about Seau's history of concussion, but the simple fact is that he chose to slam into other players like shown above. And, he was rewarded for it.

I wouldn't have any problem if they were to just ban guys like Harrison from the league.

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.
