Really sad story, thoughts go out to his children. He was a beast on the field and respected by everyone.

I was very shocked upon hearing this. Very sad indeed. Seau was definitely a player I admired throughout all of my time watching football for his attitude and passion for the game. I am really curious as to why he felt like he needed to end his life. We may never know. Definitely lost a future Hall of Famer.
