    For those who need more "NFL-Packer" connection to this crime, Jeff Ash reports that Jovan Belcher, dead in yesterday's KC murder-suicide, was college teammate of Packers S Jerron McMillian at Maine in 2008.

    Rand, your comment was bazoots.

      Some here are NFL football fans and Green Bay Packer fans and a tragedy such as this has a more or less effect on us as we become aware of the facts.

      My lady and I got onto this story as it was posted 'out of the gate'. We're both NFL fans and pay attention to all NFL news as we find time to do so.

      News such as this elicits all sorts of resposes. From the most compassionate 'in terms of the people directly involved'; to shocking remarks that demonstrate the coldness, crudeness and ignorance of some people. It takes all kinds to make our world.

        Freeman says the players wanted to play, at least that's what the Player Reps told the Union and that was passed from Smith to Goodell.

        Bud Adams told me the franchise he admired the most was the Kansas City Chiefs. Then he asked for more hookers and blow.

          A friend of Belcher's says he was suffering from short term memory loss since his last game. It's speculation at this point, but the subject of concussions could possibly be a subject raised in this tragedy. http://deadspin.com/5964917/friend-j...e-in-shootings

            If by bazoots, you mean tired of the slaughter and the overwhelming selective attention to celebrity, I agree with you.

              If the concussion angle has merit, then it's very much generally important. If this guy was a nice decent guy who went off because of a concussion, it's worthy of every attention they (the media) give it. If they use the concussion angle as an excuse to cover for a piece of shit loser, I hope they all die and are buried in cat excrement.

                The concussion angle will be tough to parse through. He's young enough that any physical evidence of trauma in his brain will be limited. Someone shared a story about PTSD in the comments to the Deadspin article that at least provided some context to a family tragedy with a relative committing a murder after serving overseas. I suspect there will be a conspicuous lack of any such info or diagnosis about Belcher, although, he did apparently sit out one game in November that the articles' source links to hits in a previous game.

                  To say the music that we listen to in society plays a role in this, that is completely insane. So did EVERYONE in the 70's and 80's do pshycadelics? I doubt it. It's just music. People that say music and video games are what are doing it to this generation are idiotic. It's all the lame things such as Adderall, ect. that everyone gives to their child, compounded with the fact that EVERYONE in our society wants all the newest, greatest things, NOW, and they get it. None of this would be relivient to this case though, I highly doubt he went loco, and shot his baby momma and himself; because "Bands were making her dance" or because of "bitch this, or hoe that" Why do people do what they do? everyone is different and now that its over there will never be able to figure that out.

                      There we go.

                      Here's a young man with all you might ask for with a solid career so far in the NFL and a girlfriend and a child he adores. A person who knows him extremely well is absolutely shocked that he murdered his girlfriend and commited suicide and left his 3 month old child (whom he adored) an orphan. This person 'only' observed the benevolent personality of Javon Belcher. Saw his need to assist or help those less fortunate.

                      Here's a young NFL player that is respected by his teammates as a contributor on the field and have issued a positive response to him in the team's locker room. He was well liked.

                      Here's a young man that by reports doesn't shoot his girlfriend and murder her but by reports, shoots here several times.

                      He then drives to Arrowhead Stadium and before an audience of his GM and HC and another. THANKS them for all they did for him. Then he shoots himself.

                      Is there a logical explanation for all of this. We may never know but it must, in the best interests of the NF,L be carefully examined

                        The guys a cold blooded murderer. The fact that he whacked himself is secondary.

                              I think it was his continued Adderall use.

                                On the same day that Kansas City Chiefs linebacker Jovan Belcher killed his 22-year-old girlfriend before taking his own life at Chiefs headquarters, an employee of the Cleveland Browns committed suicide by hanging himself in the equipment shed at the team's … Continue reading →
