If you think addicts do what they do because they "like" it, I don't think you know any addicts.
BTW his brother died last month apparently. Pretty obvious way to trigger a relapse.
Feel really bad for the guy, but yeah I don't know if he'll be given yet another chance. If the drug in question is just weed though, they really should just allow it. I think they will after the next CBA.
Trust me on this one, I know addicts very well. They leave a wake of damage and hurt with no care about anyone else only feeding that addiction. I could go into details if you like but my sister would have been 40 years old on November 22nd but instead she's dead with one kid that misses her everyday and another that was so young he'll never know his mother and two parents who two years later are still grieving everyday.
Saying all that I understand it's a sickness but given the opportunities and talents he had making excuses for him is silly. At the end of the day we're all responsible for our actions.

So you've dealt with it.. just saying maybe think about your wording a bit. I don't think she "liked" what she was doing very much. I grew up with a family of addicts, myself included, and believe me none of us "like" what we did/do.
No idea what this guy's actual problems are, so I guess we can't say much. Not to compare substances, but I don't even know what a hardcore weed addict would be like in terms of destructiveness. Seems to me that he'd only really be harming himself, which I guess is why he continues to get support and more chances. If he was into pills it might be different.
Also lots of information about Tom Coughlin came out this week, and he got shitcanned. He was fining players for the smallest things (like sitting on the bench) and he made up like 25% of all player grievances to the NFLPA. What a cunt!
Here's to hoping this happens, he's so way past his prime. Totally serious question considering he hasn't been doing much of late, can he pass a drug test?

I'm going to the Seahawks game on Sunday! Shaping up to be a great one! Really excited about it.
That should be a really good game, enjoy yourself.

Sunday's game of the 49ers vs. Seahawks is gonna be a very interesting game to watch. Seattle is coming off a loss. They will get an emotional lift with Beast Mode playing in the game.
Richard Sherman's return to Seattle is also something to look foward on Sunday. The biggest question is whether Marshawn will play at a level close to what we have seen him play in his career with SEA.
I don't think Lynch is washed up. He will show some signs of rust in his game after being away from the NFL for so long. 1505 games since his last game with Seattle. Can he come back to play at a high level? Seahawks' injuries at running back are so bad now. They need Beast Mode to play at an elite level again.
I am cheering for Seattle on Sunday. One of my co-workers is a huge fan of the 49ers. He hates Seattle because he hates Russell Wilson and coach Carroll. -says that Pete Carroll's gum chewing reminds him of a cow.
He calls the Seahawks "sea chickens'.
If Seattle beats the 49ers on Sunday, I can troll him at work in the new year.
Marshawn has not changed one bit in terms of his interactions with the media:
I get not liking Pete as a fan of their rival, but how can you hate on Russell Wilson
I agree, I really dislike Pete Carrol and I'm never going to root for the Seahawks but Russell Wilson is amazing to watch from a fans perspective.
I'm not a Lynch fan at all either, the way he treats the media is ridiculous considering the amount of money the NFL has made him over his career. Most players don't like talking to the media but they sack up and act professional not like a pubescent man child. Imagine if every player in the NFL treated the media like he does? We'd get some real insight from the player interviews.

They can sign him but he won't be playing anytime soon. He'll most likely be suspended once the NFL finishes their investigation no telling how many games. Why any team would want this guy on their roster is a mystery to me, he's like that spec of shit in a tub of ice cream ruins the entire tub or in this case team. I kind of hope they do sign him, Peyton is a piece of shit so they might be a good fit together. but more likely than not he'll torch that locker room from the inside out.

Imagine what an ending that would have been had Marshawn won it for them. Damn! They should have run something anyway instead of spiking it as well.
That no call on the PI was bullshit, and no review was even more bullshit. They kind of got robbed on that
Seahawks came out so flat in the first half, despite all the hype all week. Much better offense in the second but 49ers were pretty much scoring at will on them. That late hit penalty was kind of a fluky gift and it would have been so "Seahawks at Home" for them to win based on that, but the no PI call was way worse and basically decided the game.
Bucs have been kind of one of the more fun teams to watch this year. I wonder where he'll end up, because wherever that is, I'm following him lol
If I was going to sign him Id pay him his 30 he wants but only on the condition he loses 1 million per interception. Obviously im half joking but seriosly he makes way to nany dumb decisions I would not want him on my team. I mean Favre was a gunslinger difference is he found ways to win most times despite the turn overs. So many games for the Bucs have ended on a Winston pick.
