TO?

You see, there used to be a time when I would have dismissed Terrill's antics as just another excuse to get attention.

You know, the very public slams against Donovan McNabb, his teammates and his coach while he played for the Eagles, and as many fans were, I was just one very happy camper to see him go.

Of course this man has problems...it's been documented that both the 'Niners and the Eagles have offered him counseling, which he's refused.

Which shouldn't surprise anyone...no one wants to admit that they're depressed. There are not a lot of big, hearty NFL players who will go out and gladly lose a limb for their teams while all they want to do is cry because they're "depressed".

I know this, because I've gone through depression myself.

And, I will tell all of you right now...you'd never, ever wish that deep, dark black hole of a so-called life on your worst enemy.

We may never know what happened, or even like this guy or the team he plays for.

But, if we're compassionate human beings (which I know we are!), let's just hope that he gets the help that he needs.

It certainly does seem like he needs something-what that it is only he can begin to say. His behavior over the years suggests that something is wrong with him, and I do feel some sympathy.
