Former Titan Rob Bironas dies (1 Viewer)

Maybe he was having a very difficult time after being cut by the Titans. The emotional shock from training all your life to star in the NFL making

Millions of dollars to being unemployed has to be hard for most professional athletes. The fact the wife said he doesn't have a history of mental illness really means nothing. Different things make people depressed. For some, their career is their life whether they look happy on the outside or not.
He was expecting to be signed by Detroit after a workout. He had texted the P how well it went and that he wished he could have been there holding for him

 
I had a wild road rage incident Saturday as well. I was walking in a parking lot with my 14 year old son when this lady came barreling into the lot from the street in an SUV. She was going way too fast and was heading toward my son who was about 10 feet behind me. I turned around quickly to run towards my son and push him out of the way. Unfortunately I wiped out and ended up going ### over tea kettle, nearly cracking my head open on the pavement. The lady skidded to a stop a few feet in front of us.

Even though I was hurt, my adrenalin kicked in and I leaped to my feet and ran over to the SUV. As a parent, you can imagine how protective you get when you feel like your kid is in danger. I yelled at the lady and told her to slow down. I was ready to let it go at that, but then she defiantly looks at me and says, "you should worry about yourself" or something like that. No apology. No concern if I had been hurt.

At that point I went absolutely ballistic. I swore at the lady and whacked her truck as she drove away. She looked pretty rattled so I thought for sure she would just drive away somewhere else. But then she has the nerve to drive into the parking lot and park her car about 50 feet away from me. That just set me off even more. I'm not proud of what I did next, but it had to be done. I told my son to stay in the car and I ran over to the lady's SUV. To say I gave her a verbal ### whooping would be a gross understatement. At one point I got so hot that I gave serious consideration to flipping her SUV over - with her in it. As tempted as I was to do something crazy I somehow managed to keep it entirely verbal.

Like I said, I'm not proud of what I did, but I'm not ashamed of it either. I don't think it would have been so bad if my son hadn't been involved. Little guy almost got run over. I am pretty sure that if I didn't have such a dramatic wipeout trying to push him out of the way she would have clipped him. I definitely felt like I had a run-in with the devil. Just glad I didn't flip the truck. Would have landed me in jail and probably cost me my job.

I heard BAL is in the market for a new LT. I think you'd have a good shot.

LOL, you couldn't be MORE proud.

I am trying to understand why his wife called 911 to begin with.
She's sobbing on the call (or at least it sounds like it), she must have known something wasn't right with him.
That's my biggest hunch, too. I think we'll learn more in the coming days.

Actually I was involved in a very similar situation. Some broad in a 40 foot tractor trailer came screaming into the truck stop and scared my poodle. Now this was not the proudest moment of my life, but i raced over there and gave her a piece of my mind. Unfortunately i must have had my voice raised, because every piece of glass in the entire parking lot shattered. Now I was ready to let it go at that, but i look down and, get this, the lady is actually still there. I asked her what her problem was, and did she realize she nearly scared my poodle, and she had the damned nerve to start crying. Now i'm not a mind reader, but just by looking at her I could tell what she was thinking, "Does this guy even lift?". Pfft, obviously at that point what happened next I wasnt really responsible for, because i barely remember chucking her truck across the expressway. As far as I'm concerned that would have been it, but I look up and, seriously guys, the lady actually had managed to get out and start running away. I mean she's literally sending the message to everybody around 'hey, this dude probably works his glam muscles all day and barely hits the squat bar. I'll show him how you run'. Look, i'm not proud of it, but when you're talking about a dude that works lower body three days a week you can understand why i jumped 50 yards through the air to land in front of her. Now here's the weird part, I never actually landed. I mean, the adrenaline was really pumpin now, so when i came down in front of her, i didnt actually come all the way to the ground, just like those stories you hear about somebodys kid getting pinned underneath a car and the adrenaline gives them the power of flight. Like I said, this was far from my proudest moment, but if i had to do it all over again, I would do it exactly the same way. Except without accidentally melting the lady's face with these beams that sometimes shoot out of my eyes. Not proud of it though.

Maybe he was having a very difficult time after being cut by the Titans. The emotional shock from training all your life to star in the NFL making

Millions of dollars to being unemployed has to be hard for most professional athletes. The fact the wife said he doesn't have a history of mental illness really means nothing. Different things make people depressed. For some, their career is their life whether they look happy on the outside or not.
He was expecting to be signed by Detroit after a workout. He had texted the P how well it went and that he wished he could have been there holding for him
I think everybody in Detroit thought they were going to sign him. Said he had a great workout but the Lions decided to give Nate Freese one more game before they cut him. Too bad because Bironis would have been signed this week.

OMG. The internet people sometime, just seem so cruel and unhuman.

Side note. I heard talk on the radio yesterday that he may have been on some kind of sleeping medicine that would make him sleep walk. That could give more insight if true.

Local news today said everybody is laying low right now as his funeral is today. I guess more to come.

Holy cow, really? That's crazy if true, and this whole story would make a whole lot more sense.

Do a Google search for "crazy Ambien stories".

I had a friend who was on Ambien a few years ago. She had several episodes in which she would get up in the middle of the night (sleepwalking) and she would purchase thousands of dollars worth of crazy items online. Weird stuff that she wouldn't even want, like model train sets and car parts. She didn't remember doing any of it, and she didn't realize it had happened until the stuff was delivered.

Any chance Freese was involved in this?

On a related note, some broad cut me off today and I gave her the finger. As I was getting off the exit she threw a handful of pennies at my car. ####### lunatic.
hope your window was down :moneybag:
Sounds like you deserved it. That finger was offensive.
The sad thing is, this woman probably made sure to stock a handful of coins for this very purpose. Leaving the house that day...

Lipstick [CHECK]

Purse [CHECK]

Jar of Car Throwin' Pennies [CHECK]

yes my wife sometimes takes this stuff very dangerous potentially. I felt like I had to babysit her... She never remembers anything the next day either. I remember one time she got up and was mixing cereals together with no clue in the world what she was doing... Alittle rice crispies, alittle crispix with no milk Bowl full and spilling all over floor. Very potentially dangerous drug and she has bad Insomnia so only takes it when she really needs to sleep. I agree if he was on that then that changes whole story, even though I do think Mrs. Bradshaw had something to do with it potentially.

 
I had a wild road rage incident Saturday as well. I was walking in a parking lot with my 14 year old son when this lady came barreling into the lot from the street in an SUV. She was going way too fast and was heading toward my son who was about 10 feet behind me. I turned around quickly to run towards my son and push him out of the way. Unfortunately I wiped out and ended up going ### over tea kettle, nearly cracking my head open on the pavement. The lady skidded to a stop a few feet in front of us.

Even though I was hurt, my adrenalin kicked in and I leaped to my feet and ran over to the SUV. As a parent, you can imagine how protective you get when you feel like your kid is in danger. I yelled at the lady and told her to slow down. I was ready to let it go at that, but then she defiantly looks at me and says, "you should worry about yourself" or something like that. No apology. No concern if I had been hurt.

At that point I went absolutely ballistic. I swore at the lady and whacked her truck as she drove away. She looked pretty rattled so I thought for sure she would just drive away somewhere else. But then she has the nerve to drive into the parking lot and park her car about 50 feet away from me. That just set me off even more. I'm not proud of what I did next, but it had to be done. I told my son to stay in the car and I ran over to the lady's SUV. To say I gave her a verbal ### whooping would be a gross understatement. At one point I got so hot that I gave serious consideration to flipping her SUV over - with her in it. As tempted as I was to do something crazy I somehow managed to keep it entirely verbal.

Like I said, I'm not proud of what I did, but I'm not ashamed of it either. I don't think it would have been so bad if my son hadn't been involved. Little guy almost got run over. I am pretty sure that if I didn't have such a dramatic wipeout trying to push him out of the way she would have clipped him. I definitely felt like I had a run-in with the devil. Just glad I didn't flip the truck. Would have landed me in jail and probably cost me my job.
That's assault, brotha. Could get you 2 games in the NFL.

 
I had a wild road rage incident Saturday as well. I was walking in a parking lot with my 14 year old son when this lady came barreling into the lot from the street in an SUV. She was going way too fast and was heading toward my son who was about 10 feet behind me. I turned around quickly to run towards my son and push him out of the way. Unfortunately I wiped out and ended up going ### over tea kettle, nearly cracking my head open on the pavement. The lady skidded to a stop a few feet in front of us.

Just this morning something almost exactly like this happened to me. I woke up early to take a long 7 mile walk before daybreak.

At the midpoint just as I was approaching a side street a large semi had put on its blinker and was slowing down approaching the same side street. I slowed my gate as I realized either I or the trucker would have to come to a complete stop and allow the other to go ahead of them. This could turn into a confrontation so the stage was set for fireworks.

I'm not proud of what I did but since I was in no hurry and the trucker had to down shift and would waste fuel if he came to a complete stop so I not only stopped but gestured with my hand for him to proceed and tipped my cap and bowed and smiled. The trucker tipped his cap and returned my smile.

I waited till he passed and merrily went on my way.

I let my ego get best of me and even though two people did not engage in profanity laced tirade it could have gone nuclear.

Eerie how similar these situations are when people react in nearly identical manner. :P

 
Yeah yeah... Glad everyone is so entertained at my son almost being killed. Class act.

 
Side note. I heard talk on the radio yesterday that he may have been on some kind of sleeping medicine that would make him sleep walk. That could give more insight if true.
Do a Google search for "crazy Ambien stories".

I had a friend who was on Ambien a few years ago. She had several episodes in which she would get up in the middle of the night (sleepwalking) and she would purchase thousands of dollars worth of crazy items online. Weird stuff that she wouldn't even want, like model train sets and car parts. She didn't remember doing any of it, and she didn't realize it had happened until the stuff was delivered.
yes my wife sometimes takes this stuff very dangerous potentially. I felt like I had to babysit her... She never remembers anything the next day either. I remember one time she got up and was mixing cereals together with no clue in the world what she was doing... Alittle rice crispies, alittle crispix with no milk Bowl full and spilling all over floor. Very potentially dangerous drug and she has bad Insomnia so only takes it when she really needs to sleep. I agree if he was on that then that changes whole story, even though I do think Mrs. Bradshaw had something to do with it potentially.
Go on...

:popcorn:

 
My brother-in-law took an Ambien one night, thought he hit the hay. Woke up in the morning to a story about how he walked over to the neighbors 4th of July party. They were having a bonfire and he picked up a box of the 12 shot 500g fireworks and tossed it right in the fire. The neighbors to this day hate him, don't care about the Ambien excuse. The drug is dangerous.

 
My friend's brother had an Ambien prescription. One night my buddy answers the door at 3:30 am to cops beating on his door. Saying they were looking for him in correlation with a DUI crash that night. His wife vouched he had never left that night and was thoroughly confused. Apparently his brother had gotten in his Jeep around 2:00 AM and drove off the rode and rolled his Jeep. Climbed out of the driver seat, into the passenger seat and buckled up. When the ambulance/police arrived at the scene, he told the cops that his brother had been driving and took off running after the wreck because he was drinking and didn't want to get a DUI. They took my friend's brother to the hospital and after getting fluids and some counter meds, didn't remember any of the previous night. He hasn't touched the stuff since.

BREAKING: Toxicology testing on Rob Bironas showed that he had a blood alcohol level of .218%, well over the legal limit (.08).

BREAKING: A low level of Diazepam (Valium) was also detected. The Medical Examiner said level would have had a negligible effect on Bironas

that's crazy --- how many drinks is that?

sounds like more than a beer earlier in the night
nvm, according to this it's about a dozen shots in an hour in the state of alabama

which, I guess, is 2/3rds of a fifth -- according to google

Holy smokes. Oh well, at least he only killed himself.
 
That's pretty damn drunk. Still weird that his behavior seemed so out of character to those who knew him.

 
Terry Bradshaw's daughter [who Bironas was married too] had to know something. You know she pissed him off in something.....she called the police for a missing person after only 30 minutes of not seeing him.

Who does that by the way with a grown and former NFL Football player? I'll tell you you why, because she had a guilty conscious on what she did to him prior to setting him off. This is clearly a case where the woman is covering her tracks like she is a concerned wife.......utter BS if you ask me.

I'm not saying what Bironas did was right at all....but the wife postering herself as the innocent "doting" and grieving wife....makes me sick. I pray the local police there interrogate her properly and get the truth out of her.

I hope this is sarcasm, otherwise you're an idiot. So if he killed a family from driving while wasted, it still would have been his wife's fault? Unless his wife held him down and forced 2/3 of a fifth of alcohol down his throat, he is 100% responsible.

Most likely scenario: he had a drinking problem, she was aware of it on some level. She saw him missing and the car gone, and (correctly) presumed something bad was going to happen.

 
I was buying the ambien theory, but this doesn't surprise me. You can mostly be a happy drunk with some angry drunk sprinkled in there on occasion. Very fortunate he only killed himself.

 
I don't understand why this continues to be a thread in the Shark Pool. We don't need to dissect his death. Guy made a mistake and it cost him his life. [SIZE=14.4444446563721px]You know the phrase RIP? Yeah, let the guy rest in peace at this point. [/SIZE]

:goodposting:

I had to click on it to see why it stays at the top. Must be nothing else to discuss during Week 5 of the NFL season on a site called footballguys.

Regardless of how he died, people are now hurt he is gone. He didnt kill or hurt anyone else. He paid for his mistake with his life, isnt that enough?
