"Don" Alfredo di Stefano . . . if not the greatest soccer player of all time, certainly in the top 5. A Real Madrid LEGEND.

In hockey terms, think Gordie Howe

Sadly, some gun nuts on Twitter are celebrating, saying things like "rot in hell," "good riddance." The usual vitriol from the Tea Party types.

I hate when people say "its so sad" at a time like this

its not sad, its what he wanted. he chose to end his life.

Depression is an illness that is hard to overcome. Some can, some can't.

That is what is sad. He was a good person. He will be a missed person.

Condolences to all who loved him. I know I did.

RW has told people for years he has dealt with mental health issues. He said he was manic / depressive. Now, this - for the ignorant - is when people fluctuate between extreme feelings of elation and enthusiastic energy (manic), and devastating bouts of depression where they haven't the energy to leave their bed, let alone call someone for help or go somewhere. Thoughts of suicide, abuse of substances etc are very common (depressive).

Your statement isn't just incredibly insensitive, it's flat out wrong. But hey...

Look, I don't want to come across as a dick. I'm sad he's gone, I really am. I guess I was just overwhelmed at people being so sad when his whole mystique was being funny and making people happy. Thats how I want to remember him, not being sad because he killed himself.

Suicide hits close to home with me, and I never deal well with it in general.

Sorry if my previous post tilted u, Mark.
