The Canadian team wanted a two year deal to pay him to play professional football but he could not be committed because fame was going to call his name again.

Forget it, he has not changed a bit. When he does change, professional athletics is going to be long gone.

A lot of comparisons between Johnny Manziel and Tim Tebow. From Hero to Zero....Heisman Trophy winners who struck out big time. Sad commentary for both of them.

I hadn’t heard that. Actually all the news articles I read said it was al down to money because Manziel wanted to be the highest paid player in the CFL.

NFL history is full of Heisman winners who were a bust at the pro level. Tebow is a sterling individual who can't play QB at the pro level. Manziel is a scumbag who can. That's about the only comparison to be made.

Manziel hasn’t proved he’s a pro level player.
