    I just hope Griffin makes it out of this rough patch and gets his life back together. I don't think many people know what kind of person he is (I certainly don't), but most people are redeemable. Maybe this a positive sign that he is serious about making some changes. Or, maybe he has a hangnail...

    Good luck, EG.

    We're going to beat the crap out of you when you get better, but get well soon, anyway. Seriously.

    I still think the kid can be fixed. He's a f-d up mess, but a good ass-kicking could make him be somebody, still. Let Patrick earn his dough. He can use his fake glasses when he beats the crap out of that pr&ck. Congrats, professor. You have a student.

    What drug addiction, he just uses pot, it's not addictive atleast physically. If it's proven he's using harder stuff, then maybe I'll be concerned, very very concerened.

    I'm willing to bet it's coke...but if he's really seeking help, I have a feeling everything is going to work out fine.

    Hand in there Eddie, We are praying for ya.

    Perhaps someone's theory in another thread was correct -- maybe the girl beat up EG and he's ashamed to come out and be seen like that. It does happen . . .

    No kidding. We're slipping around here. After I heard the report on 26 I was expecting to go and see a thread that was 200 posts long with the hospital, doc name, and the time he arrived.

    That's a terrible teaser to keep viewers around for the rest of the newscast...

    The reason Griffin has checked into the hospital is "undisclosed" but it’s fairly likely that it is due to a drug problem or addiction...Griffins attorney is saying that Ramero (the women accusing Griffin) broken into Griffins residence, so they are sticking to their story...so how do the gunshots fit into this?

    Dear God...I can see the threads now. The GARM forum might as well be combined with the D&D forum now. Cue the drug debates now.

    I suspect it must be some sort of substance addiction. I think if it was an emotional problem or chemical imbalance it could be treated on an outpatient basis. Depression can make someone much more vulnerable to destructive temptations such as drugs or people taking advantage. Regardless of the reason, this is the best news I could have hoped for, not only for Eddie's sake but for the Rockets.
