You've probably heard or read plenty about Kenny McKinley, the young Denver Broncos receiver who committed suicide recently. What you might not have read was a Denver Post piece written by columnist Woody Paige.

From Paige's piece:

Why would a smart, personable, resolute, "happy-go-lucky" Kenny McKinley — with a college education, a young son, a $385,000 contract and a bright future in football and life — commit suicide Sept. 20, 2010?

Why?

I know an older man who eight years ago this month was committed to committing suicide.
