Ricks was supremely blessed but could not get out of his own way. His parents and hangers on enabled it. Just like we love the underdog story, we also like to see those who are too big for their britches get brought down to earth. Particularly when they are arrogant and treat us like shite.


Do you know his back story? Cause if not you have no idea what could cause how he acts.

Frankly, I do not care. He had everything laid out. More than 99.9% of human beings. And he pissed it all away and lit the bridge here on fire on his way out. But keep white knighting for the Bama Boy.

My only hope for Eli is that this humbles him and makes him realize that nothing is given in life. You have to work. No one is special. I hope he learns that lesson. But I'm an LSU fan. I am not rooting AGAINST him, but I won't root for him either.

Why is his backstory relevant? There have been tens of thousands of ballplayers that had shitty life situations prior to college that DIDN’T act like total asses. If he washes out of football, at least he has his degree he can fall back on…..oh, wait. Maybe not?

Backstory is irrelevant. Life is all about choices. Old enough to know right from wrong, good from evil, etc. He is responsible for his choices.

My 7 year grandson knows that he needs to make good choices.
