Someone posted "suicide". I haven't read any indication that it was suicide. We shouldn't report that until it's known for sure.

I would guess drugs.
Too bad...Dungy seems like a good guy. Rough week for him.

Didn't suprise me. Rich kid with straight arrow parents. Like a preachers son. They like to rebel and experiment.

MySpace is this community (usually people under 18) that was created I believe for bands to promote their shows at first and has now turned into ways for teens to meet, tell people about parties, etc. Basically, everyone has their own little bio-page, and other people can access it and communicate with them. Anyone that's in college, it's basically "facebook" for HS students.
As for his page, that page is absurd. If I was the son of someone famous, especially someone as conservative as Dungy, I wouldn't be plastering marijuana leaves and guns all over my page and saying I'm going to kill people, but that's just me.
Either way, very sad news to hear, especially to a guy like Dungy.

More like a wannabe thug, real gangstas aint posing on web pages. Poor kid, I really feel sorry for him and his family. His parents probably just though he was going through a phase. If it was indeed suicide, he must have been pretty torn up inside.Hiero said:
Even if they do win the superbowl, Dungy won't really be able to enjoy it after this.

How do you all know that is Dungy's kid? Not doubting, I have never been to their community, just trying to figure out how a positive id was made.

So I will refrain from making anymore stupid comments until more information is available.
Yeah, all I saw was the guy went by "Dungy", which could Tony Dungy lmao.
All seriousness though, if that is him, he sounded like a very angry young man and seemed to have alot of hate in his heart.
May God Bless him

The Holidays always seem to see an upswing in suicides... I reckon that's a particularly hard time of the year for those in deep emotional pain, watching all the happy people around them... it drives home how isolated they feel...
Tony Dungy is living a parent's worst nightmare... I suspect this will haunt him for a long, long time...

Some friends of his posted the link in another forum. I would believe it, but am not 100%.
If you look to the right of the page where people post messages, if you click on the volleyball girl's page, you will see Dungy's last posting to her.
He says that he can't talk to anyone anymore...it is really strange.
I have never really been on myspace, but it has been in the news alot lately. A kid posted a suicide message last month before he killed himself and a girl was murdered by someone she met on myspace a few months ago.

Just curious, but where are you guys getting suicide from? All the reports I've read say nothing about suicide.

I have a new empathy for that sort of thing, I went through a pretty dark period the first Christmas season after my Mom died... we buried her the day before the 9/11 tragedy, I was looking at my 50th birthday coming up the next August, and all I could think about was how I was the last member of my family still alive...
Talk about a sense of isolation... I never got to the point where I was suicidal, but I was most assuredly one hurtin' Bear... but I figure the pain was still so fresh that I could get past it, I have had no recurrences of that self-pity in subsequent holiday seasons...
Anyway, I can certainly understand how somebody deep in the grips of depression would find life a bit more unbearable during the holidays... what sucks is as a result of this young man giving in to his despair, the Christmas holidays will be a time of pain for his family from now until the last of them joins him in death...
Christmas will never again be a time of joy for the Dungy family...
