Depression can be very difficult to overcome, even with the best of doctors and best of circumstances. Unfortunately creative/funny people often get inflicted and cant find there way out. Hopefully Robin is in a better place, and one day a cure is found for this terrible disease.

Hate it... hate it so much-
When Richard Pryor passed I wasn't sad or upset, he had MS and you could see the effects of the disease taking its toll on him and see his agony.
When I read he died here I was just pissed. I couldn't see the deterioration, as I did with Richard, and I can't digest the outcome.

Thanks everyone for the kind words, I will pass on your condolences.

I can't believed Fox has decided to end Wind Tunnel and Speed Center with their takeover of Speed. Pretty sad if you enjoy any other racing than just NASCAR
I'm about as a sad as when the Nashville Network died. Used to love their motorsports...
Last post
In Fox's defense.... With all the dedicated sports channels coming together, they had to jump on the NASCAR train before someone else did.
Although, ya... I'm going to miss Speed channel for sure!
