jrb12711 Posted May 2, 2012 Report Share Posted May 2, 2012 Where does it say anything about suicide? That article says they are investigating a shooting. Either way it's sad to see him go, especially if he did choose to end his own life. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Gipper Posted May 2, 2012 Report Share Posted May 2, 2012 WTF, this guy was one of the greats. Probably a first ballot HOFer. Couldn't he handle life without football? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vagitron Posted May 2, 2012 Report Share Posted May 2, 2012 I read somewhere recently that a staggering 78% of NHL and NFL athletes post retirement go bankrupt. It's possible he was hard up for cash and in the gutter. Who knows honestly but this is crazy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vagitron Posted May 2, 2012 Report Share Posted May 2, 2012 Why would he kill himself for cash. Life insurance policies are void on suicide. I wasn't implying that he committed suicide for cash. It's possible he was dead broke and in the gutter, therefore heinously depressed considering his previous lifestyle. He then tragically took his own life as a direct result. Who knows at this point.

Vagitron Posted May 2, 2012 Report Share Posted May 2, 2012 I'll wait for ESPN. Since ESPN is the pinnacle of reporting? ESPN is actually pretty terrible honestly. I'd say at this point it's pretty much confirmed that he's gone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's possible he was hard up for cash and in the gutter. Who knows honestly but this is crazy. Wouldn't happen to most of them if they would wear a raincoat... Warren Sapp is another that has no money left because he shelling out about 30-40k a month in child support payments. Idiots. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shut up, Homo, your housekeeper doesn't find you when you are dead broke and in the gutter. No one knows why, everyone is going to speculate. I can tell you one thing, the guy had a hard time living without football. Remember when he "retired" all crying and shit and then signed with the Patriots 4 days later? He couldn't give it up. Ended up signing 4 one-year contracts with the Patriots, finally leaving for good in 2010. If you were in the NFL 3 seasons ago after a 18 year all-pro career you aren't "broke and in the gutter", that's for sure. Zombo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Gipper Posted May 2, 2012 Report Share Posted May 2, 2012 He has had a couple of incidents lately dealing with his domestic situation. I don't recall exactly if he was charged with domestic violence, or if his wife left...or if he is getting a divorce, or what. In fact, I think this may not have been his first suicide attempt. He actually ran his car off a cliff earlier....and said he fell asleep at the wheel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mark O Posted May 2, 2012 Report Share Posted May 2, 2012 Hell of a player. Saw pretty much his entire career, all the way back to high school. He went to the high school in the next city and we played them every year. The team sucked but there was no doubt that he was a stud back then.
