I'm also not sold on this either. If he was fricking Peyton Manning coming out of college than I could see why people might want to take a risk on him. But the guy is 4 feet tall and will a lot of trouble because of it.
oh frick you done did it now.

If you expect me to believe that crap then I guess you also have some swamp land in arizona to sell me. At first you would stop and then you would start speeding again and try to find ways to not get caught. We all do it so dont try and make people believe bullshite.

And that is his perogative if he continues. And if that is what he wants to do, so be it. But give him a chance to be a man. Don't label him for mistakes he made while he was still a kid.

maybe so. I'm a big LSU fan and thought he was great for us, but I also think he's an idiot. I hope he does succeed, but I don't want to be the team that uses a 3rd round pick on him.

at least I'm sold on his talent, does this let me off the hook?Posted on 4/12/13 at 11:11 am to F machine

Did you want to be the team that signed a broken shouldered QB to lead a team with a breand new coach that no one new about?

nope, that actually makes you more dumb if you still think that way AND you're sold on his talent.

So you wouldn't stop doing something if your boss caught you multiple times and said to stop or you'd be fired? Now I understand why you think it's all good. Believe what you want, but I assure you I'd stop.

I know you do dumb things when you are 20 years old. I did dumb things when I was 20 years old, but I didn't continue to do things that would have potentially caused me to lose millions of dollars. Over.....and over.....and over.....and over....

Half the NFL smokes weed and probably the majority of the NBA.
Get over it people.

Plenty of people knew about Sean Payton. Also, this is different. Drew possibly had a legit career ending injury. Of course I was weary of that. Anyone who wasn't is a fricking liar. He didn't cause himself to get hurt. TM7 caused these mistakes on his own.

Please quit comparing adult decision making processes to a 19 year old in college. It's getting you nowhere.

When did it become taboo to be concerned with off the field issues?

OK I'll play along with your thoughts. Cause I bet your boss loves the idea of you playing on ST instead of working. But then I guess he has never told you specifically to not do it right?

So you have been a 19 year old superstar college football player, Heisman Finalist, playing for a National Championship, with fame out of this world before? So you would know exactly how it feels and what he has gone through?

when you started posting. Being convinced on their talents should only make a team more likely to want to take a risk on a player, not less.

Well he used some stupid analogy about speeding to try to compare to this. I was just trying to make an analogy that probably fit a little better. And I understand the guy was 19. I'm sure a lot of college players do dumb shite. But like I said, it's when you continue to do it even when you know you are about to have serious repercussions that I have a problem with. 10 years old can learn from their mistakes, so the age thing doesn't do it for me.

I wasnt weary of it at all. And I can swear on it. But its the same scenario. You are taking a risk and hoping for the better. But thats why Loomis and Payton make those decisions

when an addict isn't ready to change, repercussions means nothing. I think he's changed and matured a bit, he just needs to stay on the right path in life.

I'm sure he doesn't love it, but he hasn't told me to stop 10+ times or I'm going to be fired. He hasn't told me anything at all. If he told me to quit or I'm fired, then I'd quit posting during work.

Nope, but if I was then I wouldn't have gotten myself kicked out of school and a risky draft pick because of behavior. Don't give me this crap about not knowing what he's going through. Tons of superstar athletes his age have gone through the college football without doing the things he did.
