He’s an alcoholic. Alcoholics are prone to immediately forgetting the worse thing that ever happened to them. The pull of the bottle is much stronger than his desire to succeed. Plus, his family has plenty of money and I’m sure they enable the hell out of him.

I really hate this. I was a big fan of his. But I think his career is over.

Doesn't anyone remember some of the antics of some not so long ago QB's? Sonny Jergenson, Joe Namath, Norm Sneed, Roman Gabriel?
