I'm not sure what the issue is, as we would have to close most of the threads on CP if we weren't allowed to speculate. We're not the media, we're not people close to the case, we're not team officials or NFL players. We're a bunch of dudes on a random message board who log on to discuss things.

Fair enough. I havce nothing against speculation, what rubs me the wrong way is because it is a sports figure we treat this story differently from if some scum bag had shot his wife in any other circumstance, it is true of the media as well, there isn't the outrage you would expect if it was just some dude wasting a girl, no it is a double tragedy etc etc, we ask what could cause him to be so troubled and the like.
