re: Why Hate Johnny Football?

I don't think he's worth hating. He's a great athlete living a great life. In that sense we should be happy for him.
His response to criticism however? That sucks. He's showing zero leadership RE: the importance of putting winning first. Even if he can somehow balance the drinking, partying, and whoring with busting his butt in the film room and on the practice field many of his teammates will not. And this matters because they will emulate his behavior and many of them will fail to do as well as they could have with better team leadership.
Just an opinion and I'm sure the JFF fans will reflexively attack it for just being about hate or jealousy.

He is a great athlete, but way too many times did I see him simply throwing up a prayer and get bailed out by Evans.
If he throws up prayers like that in the NFL, he is liable to get picked off a lot.

I cant stand him because he is a spoiled and entitled punk, who was hyped to endless levels, yet he shite the bed twice against LSU. I just do not find him to be good enough on field to warrant that type of hype, like Tebow was. But at least Tebow tried and kept his mouth shut.

I met JFF at the Masters this year, he was with his dad and I guess a family friend. Long story short, he went out of his way to have a conversation with us and was overly friendly. He seemed genuinely interested to talk to us.
He was anything but a douchebag IRL but I certainly see how he comes off that way.

Right now could be the pinnacle of his career - he needs to live it up while he can.

Johnny is a spoiled rich kid who is about to be a super rich spoiled rich kid.
This guy's head is inflated. I can't hate the guy for the pussy he is getting though. Everyone in college should be getting their share.
I just see this guy as a failure in the NFL. Perhaps a bust like Ryan Leaf or David Klingler. High profile college kid that doesn't have the discipline or the want to to put in the hard work to focus his craft.
In fact, I can see Manziel crying and pointing fingers when his team loses. I don't see a leader in this guy unless he grows the frick up.
He has to drop his entitlement behavior. It can't be about him. It has to be about the team. It wouldn't surprise me if he is out of the league in 4 years.

Let's be honest. Most people hate him at this point due to jealousy. Not much else.
I actually expect the SOB to be successful in the NFL because he's just got too big a damned ego not to be.
All true!
