Anyone suprised if he wouldn't die of old age?

You are what your record says you are.

Its the Bungles for a reason.

He's gone.


R.I.P.

Will go down as my second worst FFL pick along with Rae Carruth.

You stay classy DT'ers.

RIP.

Sorry. I was sad when Barbaro died but a millionare street thug with a history of arrests for violence. Sorry, the world actually is a bit safer because of it.

Dude is a criminal who jumped into the bed of a moving truck and fell out?

A darwin award maybe, tears? No.

WOW.... zero compassion, that’s awful

i was not even close to a big supporter of this kid, but he was making steps in the right direction. to have this happen is just really sad, if you can't admit that then you're just not human, sorry

RIP

I assume the Barbaro thing was a joke, but really? It appeared the dude had finally turned his life around, and cut this danger to the world ish out. There are plenty worse people to take glee in the death of.

You were there, I take it? I'm assuming you're the same kinda dipshit who thought Sean Taylor's murder was a botched attempt to rob himself or something, right?

Ummm, the fiance reported to the police exactly what happened. Give it a rest saving the world Joe.

Jumping on the back of a pickup truck during a domestic dispute after having a very violent past. Sorry, doesn't seem like he "turned his life around".

Away from the team because of a broken forearm, Henry was rushed to the hospital Wednesday after being found on a residential road. Police say a dispute began at a home about a half-mile away, and Henry jumped into the bed of the pickup truck as his fiancee was driving away from the residence.

Police said at some point when she was driving, Henry "came out of the back of the vehicle."

RIP


agreed, Joey.

Why even try Joey?

And no one is even talking about how much trouble the fiance might be in right now?

I have ridden in the back of a pickup, at what some would consider a high rate of speed, I didn't fall out, but I guarantee that one quick turn or stop and it would have been adios for me too

No actually it wasn't a joke. I guess I am an awful human being because I feel more compassion for an animal fighting for his life than a millionare street thug that has been given upteen chances to turn his life around and I guess whoever said that he had made a mistake.

ughhhh way to read the big picture.... you make it sound like he was caught robbing a bank and murdered 12 people. it was domestic dispute and nobody was hurt but him, was he a model citizen, not in the least bit, but compared to his prior history he was making steps in the right direction to turn his life around.

there are a lot worse people in this world to wish death upon rather than a guy who all he did was hurt himself time after time after time

-bt-

I don't take it that he was wishing death upon anyone at all....But when people essentially cause their own death I don't feel all that sorry for him.

She wasn't anywhere near him when he was found. Sounds perfectly trustworthy. Regardless, I'm not trying to save anything, but you sanctimonious do-gooders kill me. The guy hadn't gotten in any trouble in nearly 2 years, supposedly just bought wedding rings the night before the accident, and there was no inkling of abuse in the relationship. He was a moron for a lot of the stuff he did, but I can't be happy that the dude died because of some nonsensical "the world is safer now" BS.

And you know that his girlfriend wasn't trying to escape to avoid violence?

The kid just died an hour ago. Jeesh.

And you know that she was? You're just as full of **** as anyone assuming anything about this, and you have a handful of petty crimes as your justification for celebrating a 26-year-old's death. Congratulations.

It's sad that the guy died, but it's tough to feel sorry for him. He was blessed with talent and he constantly kept getting in trouble (and second chances to boot).

Just to be clear because you are really twisting this.

1. Not celebrating anything 2. Did not wish his death.

I await your apology

question: if tiger dies in his freak domestic disturbance, is it glorified like this or sad?

and if sad, why? b/c he has no priors?


-bt-

Sad because he wasn't a dirt bag thug who obviously "Hadn't gotten his life together".

Wow this thread gained some steam fast. Only 9 more days till Aqueduct re-opens.

God help us until then!

All you've done is crack jokes since the story was released, and your first thoughts about his death were that the "world is safer" now that he's dead. If that's not celebrating, it's damn close. And I'm the one who needs to apologize. :rolleyes:

So f.ucking over a dozen women without a condom isn't a dirt bag move?

Right.

it's a shame that just when he seeme to have gotten himself on the right path that he died. it's always a shame when someone so young passes, especially when it's in a situation like this.

his past notwithstanding, he was only 26 and had been 'clean and sober' so to speak for two years.

some folks might try to remember if you can't say something nice, don't say anything. he was someone's friend, someone's son, cousin, etc. would you want one of his grieving family members to read what you wrote? probably not.

:o I stand corrected coach.

If a cop game by and took him in for this domestic disturbance, would you still feel like he had gotten his life under control?

As far as it being a shame, it is more of a shame fantini33 and Herkhorse didn't bring home the Tampa Bay P4 after bagging a 100 dollar horse in the first leg. I am not happy Chris Henry died I'm apathetic and astonished that there are those that glorify him.

and this argument just went to useless, ty


-bt-

If it doesn't matter if it was domestic violence or not...The guy got in the back of a moving vehicle(pick-up no less) and fell out. That's an assclown. He's 26, not 15.

Good then you will be able to finally contribute.

Wow. Wow.

this is just sick

its a shame that you are posting in this thread.

Probably a poor attempt at humor.

Yeah, chalk that one up to the "if you don't have anything nice to say don't say anything at all."

It sounded like plenty of his fiance's family was at the hospital with him last night, so whatever situation they were in couldn't have been all that bad.

RIP
