I know this is pro sports and that there's already a thread there, but more people will see it here.

RIP

He lived quite the life...I'm actually not surprised this ended up happening.

He always was one of my favorite Bengals, actually. It's too bad -- wish he could have just kept his head on straight and turned into a good, reliable receiver. But, you never knew what to expect with Henry.

Very sad. Prayers for his family and friends. This could be tough on the Bengals. I hope they can keep it together.

That sucks. I always liked Henry and it seemed the Brown family did as well. Guess he used up his 9 lives. RIP Chris.

I am serious. He needs to be watched up there. Might try and walk out with the pearly gates.

It was bound to happen sooner or later, so at least he didn't take anyone else with him.

I don't think Chris Henry will mind, being dead and all.

Sad news. Prayers go out to Chris's family and friends.

This is just another reminder that life is too damn short. Enjoy every minute, and don't let stupid shit stress you out.

RIP #15.

Not too early for jokes at all...the idiot jumped into the bed of a moving truck being driven away by his fiance' because she was afraid he was going to beat the hell out of her. Total tool and has been his entire career. Was he a legit "on the field" talent?...no doubt! But the negatives of having Chris Henry on your team far outweighed the positives. C-ya wouldn't wanna B-ya.

If he were accidentally killed in a freak occurrence I would feel sympathy for him...but jumping into the bed of a moving vehicle and falling out is a Darwin Award.

^I agree it wasn't the smartest move but there is no reason for the jokes.

No surprise the typical trolls are out to get reactions. Just ignore them people. The more you respond, the more they will post.

Why because I should feel remorse for a moron who time after time has demonstrated he has no comprehension for the God Given talent he was fortunate to possess and allowed to do a job most of us dream of doing for millions of dollars??? Your the one who is "unreal" buddy...let me know when you want to join the rest of us in Reality Town.
