Wow...just reported on local news that Seau shot himself in the chest at his home in Oceanside. Hope he's at peace now.

I wonder if the physical toll his body took was so severe he just couldn't deal with the pain any longer.

Dave Duerson also shot himself in the chest, likely for that same reason.

6 of 8 could be connected to football in some way:

    Junior Seau's suicide today.

    Linebacker David Griggs died in 1995 after his car slid off an expressway and hit a large sign pole. He was 28 years old at the time.

    Running back Rodney Culver died in a plane crash on May 11, 1996.

    Linebacker Doug Miller died in 1998 as the result of a lightning strike at the age of 28.

    Center Curtis Whitley died on May 11, 2008 as the result of an overdose and was found in his trailer home in West Texas.

    Defensive end Chris Mims died of an enlarged heart on Oct. 15, 2008.

    Defensive tackle Shawn Lee died from cardiac arrest on Feb. 26, 2011.

    Former Chargers linebacker Lew Bush died of a heart attack on Dec. 8, 2011.
