If my son did that the last thing I would want to do is talk to ESPN about it

Thank you to whoever told the A&M tards to finally put down their stupid signs while they were talking about suicide.

They want to bring awareness to mental health issues. Good for them.

They probably don't want to but feel like it's important to get his story out. Especially because a lot of people their son's age watch this show. I commend them.

I was wondering because I know the Mayo Clinic either wanted to or actually did take and study his brain.

Wasn't sure how that would work very well if he shot himself in the head.

That was very tough to watch but I hope the message can at least do some good even if it saves one life.


Especially sad that they discovered he had CTE

That’s understandable, but that’s also the problem.

No one wants to talk about it so when people start to struggle they don’t get help because of the stigma.

I hate what these families are going through but what they’re doing could legitimately save lives.

College gameday reminds me of pro wrestling from the 90s.
