Re: Junior Seau Dead
Seau is the eighth member of the Chargers 1994 Super Bowl team to pass.
Re: Junior Seau Dead
Looking like a suicide ... apparently him driving off of a cliff a while back wasn't just an accident. Very sad.

Re: Junior Seau Dead
Did he fall on hard times financially?
Re: Junior Seau Dead
I don't think so. One of the reports I read said he's got his own clothing line and has been running a resturant since 1996. If there are financial problems it hasn't been reported at all yet.S197 wrote:Did he fall on hard times financially?

Re: Junior Seau Dead
This is a very sad story indeed. This guy is a legend and will be a first ballot HOF for sure.

Re: Junior Seau Dead
This is terrible.
Did he have concussions while he was playing? I wonder if that affected him somehow? Wow, I can't believe he conitted suicide.

Junior Seau Dead
Shefter reported he was never listed with a concussion on the injury report, but that doesn't mean he didn't sustain them.

Re: Junior Seau Dead
Definitely a day that makes me question watching this sport I love. I hope it's not concussion related.

Re: Junior Seau Dead
My condolences go out to Junior's family, especially his mom. No parent wants to have to bury their child. But in saying all of that, I'm sorry but this was a selfish and cowardly act by Junior. Not only does he leave behind a grieving mother, but he also leaves 3 children without a father. I believe that he took the cowards way out of whatever he was going through and an act like taking your own life is not rewarded with "resting in peace"...
For those with wings, fly to your dreams
Re: Junior Seau Dead
