junior seau...

His suicide shocked me to say the least.   Seau was a great linebacker, although I thought he over penetrated too much, but that was his style of play- similar to fellow Samoan and USC player Troy Polamalu.

I heard a story about Seau during a certain Pro Bowl when he paid a hotel employee to drive to Zippy's to buy some plate lunches and chili for a bunch a people.   He genuinely seemed like a nice guy.

I hope his family donates his brain for research to study whether the effects of playing in the NFL for 20 years caused damage which contributed to Seau taking his life.
