00:00still you got to hear this story from duran uh that he attempted to commit suicide in 2022 he
00:05said there'd be times he'd be sitting out there in the outfield and they'd be like you know yelling
00:09at him to go back to triple a and he'd be just uh he had really tough struggles in his life scotty
00:15i know he spoke today uh to the media and put a statement out his parents put a statement out but
00:20uh quite the story from duran up in beantown well i mean there's a couple things here one uh you
00:27feel horrible for the guy um that he was so desperate as a player in the organization that
00:36uh fans were giving him the business and he wanted to kill himself like that's scary stuff
00:44and it's awful now he has said that he's just um saying it to help one person which i've heard
00:53before if it just helps one person then it's made a difference fair enough but i think that
01:00at some level you know they do these documentaries and you open up and start talking about
01:07trying to kill yourself i think that uh putting out statements now to you know give me my privacy
01:15it's beyond that now it's too late like if you if you come out with uh i'm gonna kill myself i was
01:22gonna commit suicide you can expect it's only gonna grow like a weed from there right like the the
01:29questions and people talking about it and it's not gonna just go away and i do think that he
01:37more than likely did it for the right reasons to help someone else that's struggling but i also think
01:43it's hard to uh act like people are just gonna uh drop it and let it go you know what i mean like
01:51i think that frankly you opened up a can of worms right like uh that's why people are gonna start
01:59that's why i'm sitting here talking about it right now right like people are gonna talk about it it's
02:04scary stuff so uh you know i know they put out statements like and all this other stuff yeah good
02:12luck his yeah his statement said right you know it's a longer statement i'm just gonna pick it up
02:18from the middle here right now oh we got champions league going on the gunners the gunners uh getting
02:27involved so they're up one nil now i would guess on real madrid there yes at the emirates uh so nice
