    Default Chris Henry dies in a tragic accident...

    This is so unfortunate. The guy really seemed to have turned his life around...

    The end result is terrible, regardless. But I have serious doubts about the notion that he turned his life around.

    He may have succeeded in changing some things in his life. But it seems he failed at self-restraint. Which is generally the root of such personal issues.

    But then, maybe she was drunk, and taking their kids in the truck. Perhaps there is some sense in what he was doing at the time of the incident.

    Just seems like he was unable to taper-off the drama in his life.
    Very true. I guess I stress the term "seemed" to turn it around. And mostly just going from reports and players comments from the last year. I think, as I am sure we all do, there is a lot more to this story..

    karma doesn't bite you back like this though. did he kill/rape/rob someone? we've all done bad things so to say its karma getting back at him when the most horrible thing he did was assault, DUI, these things don't quantify death, IMO.

    As far as we all know he didn't kill anyone.

    Most of the time, change takes time and people grow up mature as they get older. Besides, we all make mistakes. Even people who turn their lives around have momentary lapses.

    I'm going to give him the benefit of the doubt.

    I doubt any of us can say we are so perfect that we can be above Mr Henry to call judgment on how he lived his life or met his destiny. The report I read tells me he loved the woman very much and was trying to keep her from leaving and passion got the better of his ability to control himself and made a bad judgment call. May God have mercy on his soul and hopefully he will RIP. Prayers and thoughts with his family and friends.

    yeah it's shocking and sad news. I saw yesterday how he suffered major injuries from that fall from the pickup truck. But then at work today heard the news he died. Didn't expect that.

    Yeah we never expect an NFL player to die like that.

    I am not shocked nor suprised. He has had a history of behvoir problems, and I thought he was bound to piss of the wrong people.

    From what I gather, he had an arugment with his girlfriend. She took off and he jumped on the moving vehicle.

    I wouldn't be surprised if we found out that he was beating her.
