....IF YOU HAVE EVERYTHING IN LIFE............
....YOU JUST HAVE TO WAKE UP AND BREATH..........
SOME PEOPLE CANT UNDERSTAND HOW SOMEBODY WITH SO MUCH MONEY CAN BE UNHAPPY
......ALL HE HAD TO DO WAS SEEK OUT GOD.............
.........AND THAT WAS FREE BABY............
TWO REASONS WHY MEDIACOONOUT IS AN INVALID NEWS SOURCE
1. SOT? SOT? HOW DOES ONE GET "SOT?" I KNOW FRED'S COONS ARE READING AND WRITING IMPAIRED, BUT THIS IS SOME ***. *** IS A FOUR-LETTER WORD. HOW CAN IT BE THAT IMPOSSIBLE TO MISSPELL?
2. UM, CREDIBLE REAL TRUE NEWS SOURCES ARE SAYING THIS POOR MAN *** HIMSELF IN THE CHEST. NOT IN THE HEAD. JUST ANOTHER PIECE OF PROOF THAT MTO WILL GO OUT ON A LIMB, EVEN ON SOMEONE'S DEATH, TO SENSATIONALIZE FOR MORE HITS.
You ignorant people who talk bad about this man should *** your mouths and refrain from commenting on this mans death. As an NFL PLAYER myself, there is so many issues that we as players know we might face when our career is over. Have you ever heard of DEMENTIA? the results of the HUNDREDS of little concussions we submit ourselves to EVERY TIME we have collisions on the football field. Im sure at his position Jr. was suffering from this debilitating condition ESPECIALLY considering the age in which he played football. You morons do your research before you come on here condemning a man who was suffering in a way NONE of you will ever know. To you we are just entertainment so please dont get on here and judge when you know nothing of what demons he was facing on a daily basis. He was a LEGEND in our game and i have the privilege of playing against him. Half of you smoke cigarettes and drink alcohol, the government calls that "SLOW KILL" so in essence you are committing suicide knowingly and dont even care. just a slower process.
ILLCEE: MediaCoonOut tells us to go to TMZ to get the story......because they are incapable of composing a valid newstory themselves.
WHAT OTHER WEBSITE YOU KNOW SUGGESTS FOR ITS READERS TO GO TO ANOTHER NEWS SOURCE FOR THE BREAKING NEWS?
ONLY AN INCOMPLETE, INCOMPETENT, IMMATURE, COONISH, UNPROFESSIONAL EMBARRASSMENT OF BLACK JOURNALISM LIKE FRED AND HIS MEDIASTANKOUT COONS!
WHEN DA FUGG DO YOU EVER SEE ON TMZ, "FOR BREAKING NEWS, WE SUGGEST YOU CHECK MEDIATAKEOUT" NEVER NEVER NEVER EVER EVER BECAUSE THEY HAVE THEIR ISH TOGETHER.
I don't come to MTO for news, mostly for laughs... and those or few and far between, but this *** is just as worse as a fox news broadcast with take your pick of whatever Rupert Murdoch gunea pig on at the moment giving wrong information. Clearly the headline is false and only meant to draw attention.Why even go as far as saying "*** himself in the head" when his death alone would garner an adamant amount of attention you news *** want? Maybe I'm asking too much of a "page 6" website to do some actual reporting and fact checking?
Brain collisions (concussions) are commonplace in the NFL. Junior Seau played in the NFL for almost 2 decades. he saw his fair share. its no secret that a lot of these dudes arent right after they leave the leauge. A lot become depressed and some sadly commit suicide. Depression is real and something you could not understand unless you've actually been truly mentally depressed. Don't judge
Kudos to everyone putting these folks in their place! As a fellow San Diegan, I am highly disappointed in how they (MTO) is "covering" or lack there of this case! You have NO respect for anyone, esp when your facts are all screwed! He *** himself in the chest NOT head, and I agree with the individual that said that he was probably suffering from some type of mental illness developed during head injuries with this NFL career. I sure hope they get to the bottom of this, and I'm sure a lot of players will be getting paid in settlements, and the ones who have left us, their families will benefit. Fellow San Diegan & former NFL player, Terrel Davis was just on the local news speaking of his memory loss and he's ONLY 39yo. So this is a serious issue that in the wake of at least 3 suicides in the past yr, check out the website that is sited as their "friends" whom did an article entitled "Latest String of NFL Suicides-Concussions Blamed." I pray he got right with God, which I'm sure he did bc he was God fearing and comes from a family that knows the Lord! My brothers played pop warner & HS football with his nephews. Pray for his family that they can find closure; and please MEDIA-noeditwrongtakeout, respect what his siter Annette said and let them have their privacy ... RIP Mr San Diego/Charger (now Jason Pitts needs to lay that to rest)
And like someone said earlier, he had a *** wound to the chest not the head. MTO you guys are just useless, you post stories on here daily that do nothing but verify everything that is given as a stereotype of not only blacks, but the entire generation of uneducated bafoons who actually believe what you guys post. No wonder the government is cutting funding for schools and *** down schools all over the country. because you guys have put education to the left and gossip is now the new source of Americans MISEDUCATION. Glad i graduated HS 10 years ago and then got my Degree and got drafted before *** really started going down hill.
@sixfourfella ... yes he was one of those mentioned in the article I referenced. They said he too *** himself in the chest and in his note asked that his brain undergo research into the injuries these men suffer!
@TheBear ... God bless you, my family is nothing but football. My brothers both play, the youngest was the 2nd rushing leader here in San Diego; as stated he and my other brother played with a couple of Seau's nephews over the years. My family knows his family as well as Marcus Allen. I hope that for your sake & the sake of the future NFL they get to the bottom of some of this ... keep your head up!
while im ranting I would like to add this. Why dont you guys here at MTO take a little initiative and start righting articles about the good things that are done in our communities around the country. How about post "MTO EXCLUSIVES" on fundraisers prominent athletes, celebrities, and musicians attend! Charitable events, sporting camps, Intimate stories about ppl helping ppl? Is it so hard to write on things that dont involve fake *** injections, who is creeping on who, who is *** or straight, who is at the strip club, who is taking naked pics of themselves, who is fat, who is skinny, who is buying a new car for their wife, who is buying a new car for their side chick, who couldnt pull up their pants after getting head in their car, who is getting head in their car. the list goes on and on. And im sure u guys are wondering why no other news site would DARE associate themselves with you guys.
His teammate said he was going through something but wasnt the type to complain or let other people know. They were very concerned about him but coukdnt get through to him. Some people are like that...they just carry burdens for so long they end up hurting or killing themselves. Prayers and condolences go out to his family. Its out of their hands and all in Gods now. RIP
@fortherecord My heart goes out to those who knew Jr. I had the privilege of playing against him a few years back, it was surreal to play on the same field as someone i watched on tv as a young kid. It is a very serious thing we are dealing with in the NFL as it pertains to player safety and health during and after our careers. I know he must have been in a state that was beyond unbearable. the thing is we are all very macho men and feel that reaching out for help = weakness, something we have been taught to bury deep down since we were young players. It comes down to us swallowing that pride and realizing that some things are not in our control and we need others to help us manage our issues. I just got mad when i read the headlines here of some very ignorant editors and even more ignorant comments from people with no clue what they are talking about. Its not about God, he wont save us from these illnesses, but he did give us the ability to control our next decisions and seek help. Its just a matter of finding the strength to do so. MUCH EASIER SAID THAN DONE.
@TheBear I totally agree. This illness is not of God but of Satan. I just pray that for his soul he made right bc suicide is not the way out. Yeah I was just speaking to my uncle and he was like man he and some of the guys like Marshall Faulk were talking about getting together to hang out. And my brothers, I just pray all the time that HE will keep them safe. The elder is going into his 2nd yr @ UCDavis and had a bad collorbone injury his Sr yr of hs. But I've seen a couple of players come off the field after said concussions and they don't look nice at all. The other brother is going into his Jr year and its crazy bc Francis Parker is rivals with Bishops and Seaus nephew Micah and my brother used to exchange words all the time, esp during CIF championships. Yes, I am wtg for someone to step up, legally to this site bc its getting out of control. I usually read and shake my head in disappointment. I graduated hs in 04 and received my BA in 08 I'm like is this what journalism has come to? If bad reporting and lack of editting isn't enough, the fact of bad representation of your OWN and glorifying of everyone else kills me. But I had to sign up and say something today bc you never know who's reading and how they are connected or affected by what's being said. I've never met the man myself, but have heard nothing but good from family that did know him and I love all that he's done for my hometown. Maybe when I'm completely done with school, ill look into something that can be done about sites like this bc its sad and its slander But on a lighter note: you know I have to ask of whom I have the pleasure of typing with lol
@myxy ... She is in mourning. Any mother that has to bury their child would act in the same manner. Get some morals, standards and Jesus! How can you say she's embarassing his legacy, when you can hear the crowd saying words of encouragement in the background. Unless you knew him personally or are from San Diego where he is MR. SAN DIEGO alongside Tony Gwynn, you have no idea of his impact ... God bless you!
My prayers are with his children, I don't know how old they are but its always hard to bury a parent as it is with a child. No one knows what he was going through or what made him get to that point but people don't just kill them selves just to be doing it, that stuff has to build up. Too bad he couldn't find his answer or solve his issues with God or whoever he worshipped. This was just his way out. RIP
@Tru Hero Please, Any website that is willing to report on REAL NEWS in the world is OBLIGATED to report the news in a tasteful manner. right or wrong they have a level of responsibility they owe it to the ppl who come to the site to get their GD facts straight. If not, DO NOT REPORT ON REAL NEWS. No self respecting person gives a dam about what kind of pants or shoes Niki Minaj is wearing.
Sleezye is on point with that comment and Seau is now on a list of some other former deceased players. Jeff Alm,Ray Esterling,Dave Duerson and Kenny Mckinley who were some others from the League who had ended their lives, because of side effects caused by repeated head injuries in sports. Football is a dangerous profession and if that's all players have to look forward to after retirement I wouldn't want my husband to play for a living!
Rest in Love Tiaina Jr. Seau. You will be missed for your philanthropy which is one of the longest running among NFL players today! A man who as a child at the age of 7yrs old, returned back to the U.S not knowing a lick of English, where Samoan was his native language.. was able to set a Legacy of the #55 standard at USC, be drafted to the NFL for his home team SD Chargers that he loved so much, stay in the NFL for 2 decades, own his own Say-Ow clothing label, own his own Jr. Seau Restaurant and raise millions for under-privileged children in his community through his Jr. Seau Foundation. People can report all this nonsense about you all they want… but your fans and those who loved you... will only remember what you did to better those around you and for your Legacy in the #55 jersey!!! #RIP55 May you find peace now
SAD AS THIS MY BE HE DID WHAT HE WANTED TO DO MY GRANDMA USE TO SAY NEVER FEEL SORRY FOR SOMEONE WHO KILLS THEMSELVES CUZ THEY ARE DOING JUST WHAT THEY WANT TO DO BUT MY HEART GOES OUT TO THE CHILDREN AND LOVED ONES THAT HE LEFT BEHIND, I JUST DONT UNDERSTAND WHAT IN THE WORLD COULD B THAT BAD TO TAKE UR OWN LIFE WE ALL HAVE PROBLEMS THE VICTORY ALWAYS COMES BY GETTIN THRU EACH ONE, MAY HE RIP WHERE HE WANTED TO B
