    Can't post the link from mobile, but look it up. Sad news, I didn't even realize he was out of the game

    That's horrible

    Only one chance at life. Sucks when people are to the point where they give it up.

    I believe he had almost died twice previously:

    * Once in car accident
    * 2nd time, some heart ailment (??)

    He had to retire from baseball after an errant pickoff attempt nailed him in the head.

    Sounds like this could be another concussion issue.

    RIP.

    Guy went out Kurt Cobain style.

    Did he have any kids?

    People with young children who kill themselves are cowards.

    Hi, Kurt.

    I'm hoping Freel didn't have kids and he's no longer in pain.

    One of the most ignorant statements I've read in a long time.

    I hope mental illness doesn't hit your family man.

    Sounds like you've had someone close to you commit suicide.

    That's unfortunate if true but as a parent, I stand by my statement.

    Concussions are more serious than they're making them out to be... and that's saying a lot considering the current situation.
