If this turns out to be brain injury-related, this issue enters a new phase. The league has to be panicking right now. I'd bet Seau's brain will look somewhat similar to Duerson's

I'm not sure what else they can do to protect players though. It's a violent game and TBI's are going to happen no matter what i think.

There is DEFINITELY going to have to be a MAJOR, MAJOR plan by the league though to put a HUGE amount of money from the TV contracts into pensions, research, therapy, etc. The amount they give now is a joke and a bad one at that. For as much money as they make off the players, they have to step up and put a MASSIVE amount of money into helping to insure that 1st ballot hall of famers arent killing themselves before they are even Hall eligible \:o

I thought Merrill Hodge was going to start crying right there in the studio, as well.

Everyone shown on ESPN so far is really crushed by this.

Peace,

excluding any problems he had with his ex wife, Seau was a top quality human being. Very active in local schools (my GF went to school in san diego and vividly remembers him).


and it was completely unnecessary for him to die today. that hurts more than anything. imagine his friends? you feel like you could have saved him if only he'd reached out.

That seems to be the theme with everyone's comments...Marcellus, his mom, Steve Young, etc...

It's a damn shame for it to end that way...it was a fantastic story with him settling in only a couple miles from where he grew up.

Peace,

Chip
