Johnny Manziel accused of trashing pad with ‘booze- and drug-filled’ ragers

Call it a case of affluenza. Rich-kid quarterback Johnny Manziel’s facing more questions about alcohol and drug use after he threw a wild party at a rented LA house, where he and his friends allegedly caused $32,000 in damage.

Manziel, who comes from a Texas oil family and whose NFL future is in peril, rented a house in West Hollywood for two days last week with a pal. The pair’s said to have thrown two all-night ragers that prompted neighbors, including comic Kathy Griffin, to call police.

It’s claimed Manziel and his group left the house strewn with booze and drugs, broke an expensive glass table and a bathroom door, and left wine stains and cigarette burns on carpets. Pictures obtained by Page Six show lines of suspicious white powder on a table, and an open bag of what is claimed to be magic mushrooms.

Former Browns QB Manziel — who last year went to rehab, but whose agent Drew Rosenhaus is dropping him in “hopes of helping him get the treatment I believe he needs” — has been served with a legal demand for nearly $32,000 for damage caused to the $4.5 million pad. It was rented to Manziel by real estate broker Nicholas Goodwin, whose company LA Exotic Life rents vacation properties.

Goodwin’s lawyer, Niki Ghazian, wrote Manziel’s reps: “Mr. Manziel threw large parties on both nights, causing extensive damage . . . Evidence suggests [Manziel] and his guests were consuming drugs and alcohol . . . and that they caused a disturbance to the neighborhood,” which led to the LAPD being called on April 6.

Goodwin tells Page Six he returned to the house to find it trashed and Manziel crashed on the sofa at 2 p.m. He said, “They were supposed to check out at noon. Manziel was passed out . . . There was cocaine all over the kitchen table, and mushrooms were still out on the table in front of him. There was booze everywhere . . . broken glasses over the floor and a Champagne glass in a tree.” He added, “If they don’t respond to our demand for compensation, we will sue.” Manziel, his lawyers, and Rosenhaus didn’t get back to us.

Looks like a 5 minute cleanup with a trash bag and dishcloth would have taken care of things.

That’s not anywhere near being trashed. Not by the standards I would have applied in my younger days.

My kitchen counter looks like that at some point almost every day. It would take 3 minutes to clean up that “mess”.

Yes, “white privilege” rears it’s ugly head again.

Guy never grew up. Still has the Frat Boy ‘Quarterback King Jock’ mentality. A few years in a state prison might shake him out of his tree.................................

Is that all?
My daughter cleans a Vacation Condo that rents for $5k Per week here on the Gulf coast of FL.
If that was all she had to put up with her job would be easy.
Some people......................

Manziel...whose NFL future is in peril.

Gee, ya think?

Ryan Leaf redux.

I'm not a "told ya so" type of person, but I won't hesitate to point out when I and about 98.9 % of football fans and watchers predicted this guy would crash and burn.

He has few skills (that are transferable to NFL-syle play), his attitude sucks and in my opinion, he has an alcohol problem and an advanced case of "affluenza".

Everybody, him included, would be better off if he just went back home and went into the family oil business.

Forget Johnny (can't play) Football.

Move on...there are much more talented and less problematic players out there.

Not proud of it, but one time at a party I threw a typewriter through a wall. Johnny Football is weak!

LOL! He’s no Keith Moon, that’s for sure. But any guy that pisses off that hissing dessicated orangutan Kathy Griffin can’t be all bad.
