Screw that dude. Not getting any sympathy from me.


I can understand that.

as one fellow human being to another, I hope he gets some help. it's really sad when his own dad says THEY need to get him some help. frick that piece of shite, HE needs to help his son, not depend on others.

athletes are spoiled and don't grow up because of it.

I don't think you can do that to your grown son. Once they hit a certain age, you can try, but good luck. Adult addicts do not give in easy. Trust me..

Is it that extreme?

I think JFF is a total frickup, but until this most recent incident, it always struck me as a series of dumbassery that was flagrant but by no means extreme.

Honestly, I've never understood why people were so worked up about him. Maybe I don't read everything out there, or maybe this is an obvious escalation, but going to party in Vegas isn't extraordinary, it's just extraordinarily stupid when you're basically told not to do it by an employer paying you a ton of money.

So instead of reaching out via a phone call or going to see Johnny, you tweet your sentiments?

If my son. I'm on a plane immediately. I whip his fricking arse. Explain to him what an embarrassment he is. How he's wasted these
opportunities. Drag his arse on a plane. Throw him into rehab. Delete his social media accounts. Throw away his cell phone. And instruct everyone in the family to keep their fricking mouths shut to the media.

Explain to him until his life is straight. It's all over. All of it. Football, social life, and fame.




Can't really do the bolded to him at this point. He's a grown arse man now. Time for that should have been while he was growing up and in high school.

He can still get his fricking arse whipped, though

This is what makes it extreme. It is what he is potentially sacrificing to continue what he is doing. If you are willing to sabotage a multi million dollar career for these seemingly trivial things, then there is a serious issue

Didn't his family coddle the frick out of him to begin with? Haven't they always been seen as an issue?

Agreed.

But I'm not ready classify Johnny as an adult as opposed to being a child. Which is a large part of why he's in the situation he is in. He's still in the mindset of being a spoiled brat teenager

Some of the MSB clearly doesn't believe in the "old man strength" theory.

I'm 29 and still have a sneaky feeling Klark Sr could beat my arse if need be

Bipolar? No solid evidence for that. He's an addict, and his behavior is that of an addict with some sociopathy.

It's not just that. No matter how angry you are, a part of you will always hold back when your father is concerned.

I'm 27, fit as a fiddle, hit the gym 5-6 times per week.

Tbird Jr. (my dad....I'm a "III" ) could still beat the shite out of me if he cared to.

Of course, he's a retired black military guy who keeps himself in shape, too, so it's not that much of a stretch

He has a sister at A&M right now. Pretty much the exact opposite of a frick up and keeps an insanely low profile.

ETA: Didn't realize she transferred, texag7
