I don't get it, did he take 5 pills or 40? If it was just 5 then I don't believe for a second that he was trying to commit suicide, maybe a cry for help.

Anyways, I don't pay much attention to the athletes that keep getting into trouble, they can kill themselves off for all I care.

Dallas police news conference happening right now.....

Police saying that the official statement is this was not a criminal act and that it was a medical situation. They will not confirm or deny anything. They do not know how the previous information was leaked.

So, basically we learned nothing. What a waste of time.

I read it as prior to this incident he'd only taken 5, but that the bottle was discovered empty suggesting that he had taken ~35 pills.

Regardless I hope he's ok.

As an Eagles' fan, naturally I can't stand the guy. But it's obvious that this guy has serious emotional issues and has for a long, long time.

I don't like him, but I do pray for him and I do ask God to teach me to love him.

As for the suicide attempt, I don't believe it.

I was a paramedic for about ten years and transported literally hundreds of suicide attempts.

I can tell you from first hand experience, if the doctors have even a speck of evidence to believe that you're suicidal, they're not going to release you the next day.

In fact, if I remember correctly, there is a mandatory 72 hour observation period.

Whatever his problem is, I do hope he gets the help he so obviously needs.
