He had been helped off the field after a brutal tackle and then he collapsed on the sideline. His name was Ronald Rouse, and he played for the Hartsville Red Foxes.

This is so sad.

This photo (above) is possibly one of the last photos of Junior Seau before his tragic death.

It was taken on April 30th, just two days before his alleged suicide.

He was at a kids' charity event called '9-1-1 For Kids' where they teach kids how to properly communicate with 9-1-1 operators, specifically for emergency calls only.

The event was at the St. Regis Monarch Beach Golf Links in Dana Point.

Junior was there, joking around and even had drank a few shots of tequila with Karma Tequila Co-Founder Gary Eisenberger.

Gary said Junior was the most jovial and happy person out of all the celebrities at the event.

Wow.

We didn't think we could feel any worse about this but we do. This is so sad.

His family and friends are in our hearts and thoughts.

Tyler Perry famously opened up about his childhood molestation on Oprah over a year ago, but now he's opening up about his tragic experiences in honor of the victims of Jerry Sandusky.

Newsweek published an open letter from the filmmaker, which he wrote to the former 11-year-old Second Mile child who suffered for years at the hands of the Penn State football defensive coordinator.

In the heart wrenching letter to the unnamed victim, Perry praised the courage it took to come forward with the allegations, writing:
