Sometimes you never know what people really mean when they post something like he did, whether they're serious or just fooling around. But it's not worth taking the chance. Based on your link title, it was real and he didn't do anything drastic.<div>
</div><div>The heartwarming part is that people were so willing to help. I trust that we would be the same way, regardless of the person's sports allegiance, school attended, or any other factor. Kinda makes you know that despite all the banter on sports boards, there are some really good people out there.</div>

Even if they're just cries for help or self-pity. If you don't take them seriously, sometimes the person who needs help might actually follow through.
