Guy was a helluva linebacker.....suicide at 43. At least the initial reports are suicide.

That's very sad. Wasn't there another ex NFL player who committed suicide last year?

Media already saying that he shot himself in the chest because he wanted his brain examined after his death. And several media reports already speculating that he was suffering from a career of concussions.

hope this means that my autographed card of his will increase in value as it sits in my safe.

Unbelieveable...RIP Junior

I'm not going to bash on the dead but that was really selfish of him considering he has three kids. I feel so bad for his family...his mom looked completely devastated on the news.

I'm not a real football head, but when I saw his Mom on TV, I felt I would cry for her. My best to his family.

yeah....that was hard to watch. The family/friends are who pays the real price with suicide.

I still can't believe it. When.I heard, I was like

It was hard to watch his Mother react like that. I felt so horrible for her. Losing a child is so very hard. Losing a child because they were unhappy enough to take their own life, has to be all that much harder.

He did so much good for so many too... It's a sad situation all around for so many people his life touched.
