    Default Manziel Enter Rehab

    Looks like Johnny boy has finally come around to the fact that he has a problem:

    Would be nice to see him finally straighten his act up.

    The problem with socialism is, eventually you run out of other peoples' money.

    Wait am I missing something here? I thought the attached article said he voluntarily placed himself in rehab. So how do figure A&M didn't give a crap and Cleveland was able to do something about it. I ll go back and read it again.

    If I had to guess it was probably a situation compared to when a company says you can either resign with dignity or we can fire you. A&M had no stock in Johnny, they invested nothing. Cleveland invested A LOT and probably said you can either go to rehab and we'll say you did "voluntarily" or we can cut you and say you're an alcoholic and make you untouchable by every other team.

    Regarldess, I hope he figures it out. Hate to see that happen to anyone, especially to someone who is younger than I am.

    He needs to figure it out. He might be headed in the right direction heard on the new last night he was offered by a Vegas Hotel a six figure sum if he would host a Super Bowl party. He turned it down.

    Totally agree with ya NT. Colleges should not turn a blind eye to kid's whom they know have a substance problem. Just cause the kid can play solid for them on Saturday's, they let him do whatever he wants the rest of the time.

    It was no secret to anyone, JF was drinking out of control as a minor while at A&M. When he couldn't do anything, without being under the influence, A&M should of stepped in. How many elite camps did he attend for kid's, while at A&M, and end up being asked to leave cause he rather drink and smoke, and couldn't even show up in the morning? He was seen around CS bars as a minor getting loaded out of control. Pretty clear he had issues. Yet---no one did a thing, cause he brought wins to the college. Not just A&M I know. It happens at most I'd suggest. These colleges need to have a better judgment of these athletes who have substance abuses. When the public is aware, you know colleges know.

    I agree with Caleb. This was not totally volunteer. Regards what the news article say's. Cleveland seen an addicted kid out of control, and stepped in, as A&M (and JF's parent's) should of done years back. They all failed him and should be ashamed. We all knew he had issues. You know they knew too.

    Yes New Taiton, it is pathetic.

    That's some funny stuff right there, since he was already in rehab. Maybe it was a Rehab Super Bowl party, hosted by Manziel. LOl
