It doesn't work, he's like herpes. Which is fitting since he probably contracted herpes from his dirty anorexic NMU whore of a wife.

You are ridiculous. I'm personally against distorting somebody's life/accomplishments just because they died young. Henry was a threat to people around him and random people he could have harmed through a repeated pattern of poor decisions. As somebody with friends and family in the Cincy area, I'm glad he's not able to make those decisions anymore... If that's harsh, it's harsh, but it's true. Frankly, it's sad he got so many freaking second chances. He should have been locked up a long time ago, but wasn't because he's good at football. He was only 26, and maybe he was trying to turn his life around, but this is no surprise. And as far as people comparing this to Sean Taylor a couple of years ago (people on ESPN anyway). Sorry, Sean Taylor was sleeping in his bed, doing nothing wrong. This guy jumped into a MOVING TRUCK. He was undoubtedly up to something no good, based on his history...it was a pattern that was going to get someobdy killed one day. It just happened to be himself.

Maybe you should try jumping into a MOVING TRUCK. No one around here would care, in fact, I'm pretty sure a celebration thread would be started.

How about all of you asshats throw in $5 bucks and buy a ticket for him to fly out here. I'll pick him up at the airport.

Ah yes. Physical threats over the internet. Always the sign of a witty and intelligent person.

What is this, a comments section on youtube? I'm waiting for you to start saying that your dad can beat up everyone else's dad...

Instead of all the personal insults, why don't one of you actually put up a good argument to refute what I said?

The arguement to refute what you said, is that you did not know this young man. You have no way of knowing if your characterization of him is at all accruate. Everyone will agree that this young man made some poor decisions in the past, but he had apparently kept himself out of trouble and may have in fact learned his lesson. Three young children are now without a father and that is a tragedy. Simply stating this man was a danger to everyone around him is quite a stretch, you really can't refute something that ignorant.

I happen to know an individual, who in his younger years, got himself in a lot of trouble and made some poor decisions. He learned his lesson and turned himself into a respectable local businessman, and a father of 4. Point is that people are capable of changing and should never be labled for life for their past transgressions (there are exceptions to this, child molestors etc.).

Can we start the thread now and then bring it back up when Mr. Tae Bo jumps from a MOVING TRUCK and splatters all over the road?

Not necessarily, but when people start lionizing the recently deceased and filtering out the bad, it is. Not saying that's happened here, but it did happen with other celebrity deaths... notably a certain child molesting singer.
But it's not like he stopped doing stupid things. He had been arrested numerous times since leaving college, that last occurrence in 2008 at age 25, and been almost constantly involved in some sort of drama since college.

If I knew you had been arrested numerous times in the last 5 years, I think I can make a fairly accurate estimation of your character.

Stop breaking the ******* law. How difficult is that?

When he was 23 he gave booze to 3 kids who were 18, 16, and 15. That is a giant scumbag. It's not like he was 21 and bought his 20 year old buddy some beer.

You say he turned his life around?

A list of criminal stupidity ...and a long list of excuses.

Stop breaking the law. One year arrest-free is a good start, but that doesn't mean things have changed.

Clearly the initial reports of the circumstances surrounding his death do not point towards a man who's grown past violence and stupidity.

Maybe so, but can't people change their ways and become a better person with a checkered past? Josh Hamilton comes to mind. Is he still scum of the earth because he once was addicted to coke?

No, a parent buying their kids of that age alcohol is a giant scumbag. Not saying what he did was right necessarily, but those things happen more and more often these days, unfortunately.

Recently, absolutely he did. And those who KNOW him have attested to the fact that he has turned his life around and is beginning in the right direction.


You're a heartless **** if you are thankful that 3 very young children are now without a father just 8 days before Christmas.

Again, did you hear that 911 tape? He obviously hadn't learned from the 6 "2nd" chances that he's been given. How can you say "absolutely"? The guy was acting like a freaking animal.

Uh, ya... I listened to it. It's a bit vague to say he was "acting like an animal," isn't it? It is being treated as a domestic dispute, meaning something was going on between he and his wife. Who knows what happened prior to this, I'm fairly certain you don't know anymore than everybody else though. But, it's comforting to know you have no remorse for the children and others affected by this tragic incident under any circumstances.
