In a tragic coincidence, Seau becomes the eighth member of the 1994 San Diego Chargers, who lost Super Bowl XXIX to the 49ers, to die at a young age. The others: Chris Mims, David Griggs, Rodney Culver, Lewis Bush, Curtis Whitley, Shawn Lee and Doug Miller.

He joined the Dolphins in 2003 for a three-year hitch in Miami.
After a four-day retirement following the 2005 season -- Seau deemed it a graduation into the next phase of his life at the time -- he reversed course to spend four final seasons (2006-09) with the New England Patriots. He played sparingly the final two years, joining the club at midseason in both cases, but continued on at the behest of coach Bill Belichick, who valued Seau's legendary work ethic and leadership skills.

"R.I.P Jr. Seau one of the greatest players to play the game! Damn this one hurts San Diego! One of the greatest to to come from the city."

Re: Junior Seau found dead at his Oceanside, California residence today!
That was one bad ass football player and no doubt a H.O.Fer as soon as he is eligible , it sucks when things look so bad for anyone the only way they can see an out is by taking their own life, that does end their problems but its just the start of problems for those that are left behind that love them and I am talking about everyone, not just those in the spotlight.
