I'm also a Colts fan and yesterday former DB Vontae Davis was found dead. He was only 35 years old. They haven't determined cause of death yet, but some close to him say he was sufferring from mental health issues. Sad to see a young man pass so soon.

Another reminder that no one is promised a long life. You do not know what tomorrow will bring. What is your life? For you are a mist that appears for a little time and then vanishes. Instead you ought to say, “If the Lord wills, we will live and do this or that.”
James 4:14-15

Whatever the circumstances the sadness is the same. However I do think it is worth asking if the violence that is football contributed to the "mental health" issues he experienced. Regardless of the changes in rules or the advances in equipment design, football is a collision sport. Just one more reason I prefer baseball.

I was a Colt’s fan until one day about… I don’t know, maybe 7-8 years ago I just lost interest in the sport and now know very little about, but I do remember Vonte Davis. Sad to read of his death. Some of us live with demons inside us. Most that do can overpower them, many can’t. I take medications to control my depression, I have for about 40 years, yet I still have my days. At least once through rough times I know I had what they call a mental breakdown, and I fought out of it by myself over a period of over five years. I like to say I wasn’t crazy, but I got close enough to see what it’s like on the other side of the line. Condolences to his family and loved ones…

I know a little of what you have been through and continue to battle. My wife suffers from depression and anxiety. She has never totally recovered from a brain surgery many years ago to repair an aneurysm. Before I became more educated I didn't understand what she was going through and couldn't understand why she didn't just snap out of it. We had some real lows but thankfully she is doing better right now and I'm thankful for every good day we have together. I appreciate your sense of humor and your courage for the way you deal with your medical issues.

I appreciate your sense of humor and your courage for the way you deal with your medical issues. Thank you. As a child I suffered undiagnosed and I secretly suffered through the insomnia that I still fight to this day, often sleeping only an hour or two a night. The good news is that I developed my sense of humor as a coping mechanism, often being the class clown instead of focusing on my studies. It’s sad to look back and realize that I was never comfortable with my natural family enough to laugh much at home, so I cut up in class. It’s the classic story of a broken home I suppose, but I fought hard and worked (unintentional workaholic) hard and I feel I’ve done well. Give your wife a hug from me, and remind her that she’s not alone. Sometimes that helps all of us that fight this condition…

MLB Rumors reports that Former Pitcher Pat Zachary has passed away. Zachary was part of the Met's return in the Tom Seaver trade. Another player from my ball card collecting era passes away. RIP.

Only 71 years old. I never had his baseball card because he’s only a year older than me. In just a few years we go from mourning our baseball cards to mourning that the guy is our age and the solemn reality that we could go with them at any time…
