Pretty sad, Bob's a great guy. I wish him and his family God's peace during this time.

Sad story. I wonder what got to him. I'll never understand suicide from someone that has young kids.

How awful. May he rest in peace and may his family be comforted by the thoughts and prayers of those around them, and those far away.

Bob Ryan is one of the "good guys".

In a business where any large-market columnist is subject to be thrown onto ESPN and told to scream with others in a "four-box", Bob Ryan actually has substance and is seen, throughout the business, as a genuinely nice person to deal with.

I hope that he is able to find comfort with the hundreds (thousands?) of fellow journalists that he has befriended over the years -- writers and broadcasters many, many levels below him, including this one -- that he actually took the time to talk to and be friendly with.
