HogNose Posted May 2, 2012 Share Posted May 2, 2012 So he shot himself in the chest, same suicide as Dave Duerson.On Twitter people are talking about how they did it that way so their brain could be studied. EDIT: Sorry, I saw the Duerson story mentioned in the Seau story and mistakenly thought they were talking about Seau. My apologies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boss_Hogg Posted May 2, 2012 Share Posted May 2, 2012 Exactly. This could be another Chris Benoit situation. Benoit had the brain of an 80 year old and he had major depression issues. Plus Benoit was a roid head and some have reported that Seau used to juice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

justice98 Posted May 2, 2012 Share Posted May 2, 2012 The lawsuit against the NFL just got a whole bunch more names. I'd be terrified if i were an former player. Although, I wonder if there are any more CPT related suicides now than there were, say, 30 years ago. At least once or twice a year, some former player is committing suicide that, at least anecdotally, gets traced to concussions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DCchillin89 Posted May 2, 2012 Share Posted May 2, 2012 RIP.I loved Junior Seau Find me someone who didn't. The guy was a warrior and classy through and through. One of the most lovable NFL players I've ever known. This is like a kick in the nuts Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeMarco Murray 29 Posted May 2, 2012 Share Posted May 2, 2012 Seau Duerson did as well. On May 2, 2011 researcher neurologists at Boston University confirmed that he suffered from a neurodegenerative disease linked to concussions Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sticksboi05 Posted May 2, 2012 Share Posted May 2, 2012 Shame. Before L.T. he was everything in San Diego. Probably the best LB I saw play outside of Ray Lewis. Also, 8 members of that team have died. What is going on? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ddub52 Posted May 2, 2012 Share Posted May 2, 2012 Its being reported that he shot himself in the chest. I just realized that may have sounded insensitive of me.
