The death of junior seua brings to mind a poem I once heard. the NFL had a big day in its evolution yesterday. The bigger change will come from the Junior seua death. While it was the 5th death in the last 18 months of former NFL players. some speculate that the suicide with the shot to to the chest, was to call attention to his problem with concussions etc.
I enjoyed watching Junior play but I really think he was having trouble adjusting to life out of the NFL. I don’t remember a lot of talk about concussions and seua but I have been wrong before about a lot of things.
This is that poem that I remember hearing in regards to another former NFL player, Lance rentzel.
When all the laughter dies in sorrow
And the tears have risen to a flood
When all the wars have found a cause
In human wisdom and blood
Do you think they’ll cry in sadness
Do you think the eye will blink
Do you think they’ll curse the madness
Do you think they’ll even think
When all the great galactic systems
Sigh to a frozen halt in space
Do you think there will be some remnant
Of beauty in the human race
Do you think there will be a vestige
Or a sniffle or a cosmic tear
Do you think a greater thinking thing
Will give a damn that man was here
the investigation into his death will fill in the blanks about what happened and why but his family is left with nothing but the sorrow and the hurt. May god be with them all the hours of their remaining days.
Strive for excellence, nothing but your best.

Love my Saints to the end!!!

They should suspend the whole team because they all knew about it and they all profited from the disgusting program.@ Mike:
