I've heard everything from the Kerrville people. It really is kind of sad, but there's nobody to blame but yourself, unless you just don't have to or want to care, which is what I see in him now.
This is what happens when you get an entitled kid plus alcohol. Alcohol is so accepted in society so what did people expect? Its so cool to drink and party! You can't even celebrate something without alcohol there. Its very normal. In fact, some may look down on you for not drinking with them. Our culture created a monster and that monster is Johnny Football.
I'm trying to think of another comparable athlete who chose the nightlife over the sport...Hollywood Henderson maybe?
I have some sympathy for him, because I've known people in my life that were just out of control due to substance abuse or mental problems. They weren't bad people, but you just couldn't get through to them. I agree that it looks like he won't get any more chances in the NFL.
Johnny grew up in affluence and had every single opportunity to succeed in life and he chose to screw it up. It's not like Johnny grew up in a poverty-stricken environment with no parenting. There are a lot of guys in jail who I have more sympathy for than Johnny 8-ball.
I have a lot more sympathy for other people also. But, wealthy people can suffer from some of the same things that poor people do. Johnny has had a much easier road in life than most people. But that doesn't mean he is exempt from some of the demons that can wreck a persons life. I think as you grow older and live a little more, I believe some of your opinions will change.
Zero sympathy for the guy. I've heard enough douche bag stories about him around town for me to have any kind of sympathy. I'd love to party with the guy, but he deserves anything coming to him. It's all his fault.
Its absolutely some kind of mental condition to NEED to party so much. Me I'll go to a bar 3-4 days a week after work and a late night spot 1-2 days in the weekend. Thats a lot of outings but it doesnt do anything to mess up my job. After just 1-2 LIGHT drinks and appetizer I just want to go home and sleep lol, even that many times out feels excessive and draining like some party monster. It must take an insane volumous non-stop amount of partying and dedicated party obsession to destroy an NFL career, to just want to do THAT and nothing else. Treating partying like its all day full time job with overtime all on its own. Partying is cool but its not THAT rewarding
Are we sure he's not being paid to show up to clubs at this point? Common & lucrative. It's not like he has a job.
