I support Brent as well. He should suffer the consequences of his second DUI, maybe do some jail time to teach him a lesson. Brown is more responsible for his own death than Brent, IMO. He made the choice to get in the car with his friend who had been drinking, but we never want to blame the party who died.

Correct. This may sound trashy on the surface, but think about it from your own point of view.

It probably rarely crosses your mind when getting in the car with someone who's had some drinks. You are taking an inherit risk.

I've gotten in cars with people who have been drinking, which is dumb on my part because I know the risk I'm taking.

Honestly, these guys were best friends and roomates since college. my guess is the had a histroy of partying together. it was random chance that Brent happened to be the one driving that night....they both were likely intoxicated and chose to get in a car together adn my guess is they also frequently drove fast.

Their families knew each other well and they were like brothers.

This isn't like he hit some innocent kid on the street.

I think Brent needs to do time for his crime and he probably won't play football (his name is not Ray Lewis or leanard little or lawrence phillips or Pacman Jones) anymore.

But I have no problem with his team mates and coaches being there for him. they are not condoning what he did.

I agree with this. I couldnt imagine be responsible for the death of a loved one whether by accident or due to negligence. It's something he will live with forever.

I admire his mom for the strength to publicly show compassion.
