He should be judged "most stupid athlete" - does he not think cameras are around everywhere now.NBA is a joke

Its one of those topics where differed opinions can take this thread to about 30 pages and get nowhere. All I am saying is that sooo many people I know that have tried their best to get sober have relapsed on at least one ocassion. Its what you learn from it and if you get yourself up off the ground and keep fighting. Gimme a break with the shouldnt he know better by setting an example crap.
And you still didn't answer the question

Originally posted by Chado1 View PostYou dont think he knows that? Do some studying about the disease of alcoholism and drug addiction in reference to the mind and thinking. If someone is in a position where they have chosen they are gonna relapse you think they give two shits about what position they're in. Like I said you dont know what type of childhood, life, he may have lived so therefore its not fair to judge a relapse that is common amongst many alocholics and addicts. It is up to him and him only to keep fighting and get up when he pushed himself down. Simple as that
If he knows that then why put a loaded gun in your hand? Instead why not go down to a meeting or talk to someone if you feel the need to use. I'm sick of seeing assholes like this guy getting 2 or 3 chances at fame and money then acting irresponsibly.

He's been given how many chances to make it in MLB? 2 or 3 at least. He's made it now he's out getting drunk like a stupid fuck which increases his chances of relapsing back into a drug addict.
