I'm starting to wonder if this kid makes it to his next birthday.
"Former Cleveland Browns quarterback Johnny Manziel, 23, is accused of trashing a mansion in West Hollywood, California.
According to Emily Smith of Page Six, real estate broker Nicholas Goodwin said Manziel partied for two days straight at the Los Angeles property last week, leaving evidence of alcohol and drug use and causing $32,000 in damage."

Originally posted by revo View PostManziel was already wealthy before he set foot in the NFL, as his grandfather was wildly successful in the oil business and his dad is a prominent attorney. The guy's had money his whole life. This is probably par for the course for him, but now he's in the pro spotlight and as Friar said, he's probably surrounded himself with yes men. But now he has [had] an actual employer and can't handle it. It's too bad because he had actual talent and it's being squandered.I'm not expecting to grow flowers in the desert...

Free agent Johnny Manziel has been indicted by a Dallas county grand jury on a misdemeanor assault charge.
He's accused of hitting ex-girlfriend Colleen Crowley "several times" while driving a vehicle. Sources told CBS Dallas that Crowley and Manziel reached a civil settlement, but the legal process must now run its course. Crowley also got a restraining order that prohibits Manziel from seeing her until at least 2018. Manziel may not end up in jail for the charge, but he could face NFL discipline, further reducing Manziel's chances of returning to the league anytime soon.

Some brutally honest quotes from Manziel's father:
"He's a druggie. It's not a secret that he's a druggie. I don't know what to say other than my son is a druggie and he needs help. He just hasn't seeked it yet. Hopefully he doesn't die before he comes to his senses. That's about all you can say. I don't know what else to say. I hate to say it but I hope he goes to jail.
I mean, that would be the best place for him. So we'll see."
"I had him in rehab and he escaped and the doctors let him go, and that is a whole other story. So, I mean, I had him and the system failed. It didn't work. He has more money than me so he can outrun me.
Like I said, there are two things that are going to happen: He's either going to die, or he's going to figure out that he needs help. It's one of the two. But we've done everything that we can do. Life goes on. You can't just chase somebody that's not willing to listen."
"I truly believe if they can't get him help, he won't live to see his 24th birthday," he said.

http://bleacherreport.com/articles/2...aign=editorialBob- I'm not exactly sure it would ROCK as you say it Byron.. it may be cool, by typical text book descriptions. Your opinion of this is shallow and poorly constructed, but allow me to re-craft your initial thought into something tangable.

The NFL is such a stick up the ass league that it's nice to see someone who didn't play by the rules, but succeeds anyway. Same reason I always appreciated TO...always showed up on Sunday, but you never knew what he was going to do the rest of the time...

You might want to get rid of that dog, or put him in the circus, one of the two.”
