I have nothing but good memories of playing for the Bills. It's something I cherish. When I was playing for the Pats, I'd wear a Bills T-shirt under my uniform. Someone came up to me one day and said, 'Fred, no matter what you wear on the outside, you,ll always be a Buffalo Bill on the inside.'
Wow, that's crazy, I remember Chris Benoit from when I watched WWE/F/whatever in the early '00s. I hated that guy then, but that's so sudden and so... random! I feel for his family (extended family) and friends, fans, and whoever else was affected by this.
When you see stuff like this and Eddie Guerrero and Owen Hart it kind of serves as a reminder that outside the ring, wrestlers are just regular people like the rest of us.

Benoit was one of the better technical wrestlers in the business... Always liked him. Wish I knew more about the death.

Really weird situation. Hopefully more comes out soon.
My condolences to his family friends and fans. Really tragic news. Its even more tragic because it involved the death of their kid. I think anytime that happens its bad no matter who you are.
That's terrible. When I watched WWE he was one of my favorites... This is just really really fishy situation...

FAYETTEVILLE, Ga. -- WWE wrestler Chris Benoit, his wife and son were found dead in their Georgia home Monday. Police said they're investigating the deaths as a homicide.
Was thinking Murder suicide or Something with the house raydon gases or carbonmonoxide... That is all that would make sense to me...
Weird... I dunno, I can picture the guy pretty pissed off and going physco just from what I have seen of him wrestling. Hope thats not what happened.

The simple fact is that he is a over rated piece of **** that can't cover. He makes bad reads on routes and lacks the ability to recover when he is beaten.
For Madden people the best way to explain it is that he has a very low awareness.
And then they give him a 3 hour tribute.. I was telling Tigam 'he must not of killed his family cause that would be stupid of them to give his dumb *** a 3 hour tribute if he did'
Killed his son... and gets a tribute for it (if thats what happened)

Ok, good. In my opinion, you're an idiot. Good thing I can't be wrong!

Was Benoit the guy who's "special" was the Crippler Crossface? Cos I remember when we were kids we used to use that and the Walls Of Jericho all the time.
Anyway, if this is a murder suicide, thats terrible...Though we dont yet know that is the case.

FAYETTEVILLE, Ga. (AP) -- Pro wrestler Chris Benoit canceled a pay-per-view appearance at the "Vengeance" event in Houston because of "personal reasons" a day before he, his wife and their 7-year-old son were found dead in an apparent murder-suicide.
Details of the deaths "are going to prove a little bizarre" when released to the public, Fayette County District Attorney Scott Ballard told the Atlanta Journal-Constitution. Autopsies were scheduled Tuesday by the Georgia Bureau of Investigation in DeKalb County.
Authorities were investigating the deaths at a secluded Fayette County home as a murder-suicide and were not seeking any suspects.
Investigators believe Benoit, (pronounced ben-WAH) killed his wife and son over the weekend and then himself sometime Monday. The bodies were found Monday afternoon in three different rooms of the house on Green Meadow Lane, in a subdivision off a gravel road about two miles from the Whitewater Country Club.
Ballard told The Associated Press a gun was not used in any of the deaths. But he declined to say how the three died.
"We're pretty sure we know, but we want to confirm it with the crime lab," Ballard said early Tuesday.
Fayette County Coroner C.J. Mowell did not return phone calls. The answering service for his funeral home said he was out of town.
World Wrestling Entertainment said on its Web site that it asked authorities to check on Benoit and his family after being alerted by friends who received "several curious text messages sent by Benoit early Sunday morning."
Sheriff's Lt. Tommy Pope told WSB-TV that the three were found about 2:30 p.m., but he wouldn't release other details.
Stamford, Conn.-based WWE also said on its Web site it had been asked by authorities not to release further information on the deaths of Benoit, 40; his wife, Nancy, 43; and son, Daniel.
Benoit was born in Montreal. He was a former world heavyweight champion, Intercontinental champion and held several tag-team titles over his career. He was known by several names including "The Canadian Crippler."
"WWE extends its sincerest thoughts and prayers to the Benoit family's relatives and loved ones in this time of tragedy," the company said in a statement on its Web site.
Benoit had maintained a home in metro Atlanta from the time he wrestled for the defunct World Championship Wrestling.
The WWE canceled its live "Monday Night RAW" card in Corpus Christi, Texas, and USA Network aired a three-hour tribute to Benoit in place of the scheduled wrestling telecast.
Benoit's wife managed several wrestlers and went by the stage name, "Woman," The Atlanta Journal-Constitution reported.
They met when her then-husband drew up a script that had them involved in a relationship as part of an ongoing story line on World Championship Wrestling, the newspaper said.
Benoit has two other children from a prior relationship.
Im wondering how the **** he killed them too, since it wasnt shooting. When its announced if someone could post that here it would be good.
In the article it doesnt say he killed them at seperate times Poetic, unless I have missed something, or you have read that elsewhere...
If that is the case, he must have had to lock his son up for the day before killing him.
The guy is a disgrace.

Yeah, I heard it from a really reliable radio source. Said he killed his wife Saturday and kid Sunday.
When I find out the cause of death, I'll post it here.

While I dont have the connections Poet has in radio as it seem he has in everything else...
I googled it and can confirm his statements above... I would also like to add Benoit HUNG himself in his weight room....
FAYETTEVILLE, Ga. - Pro wrestler Chris Benoit strangled his wife and smothered his son before hanging himself in his weight room, a law enforcement official close to the investigation told The Associated Press today.
Authorities also said they are investigating whether steroids may have been a factor in the deaths of Benoit, his wife and their 7-year-old son. Steroid abuse has been linked to depression, paranoia, and aggressive behavior or angry outbursts known as "roid rage."
"We don't know yet. That's one of the things we'll be looking at," said Fayette County District Attorney Scott Ballard. He said test results may not be back for weeks.
...and, yeah, I have connections . The radiostation down here always has stuff like hours before you hear it anywhere else. I love it because I know stuff generally before anybody else knows about it (public wise).
That is ridiculous. Killed his own son... that is despicable. What in the hell would make him do something like that?
