You simply can not fire a man for the consequences of his alcohol addiction.

Alcohol addiction is not necessarily a "disability" under the definition of the ADA. It can be in some cases and isn't in others. I would say in this case he will have difficulty demonstrating that his alcoholism prevented him from performing normal functions of daily life.

This was the coach acting up at a party right? Well, I would sue the entertainment industry. After 30 years of movies and "Girls Gone Wild" it is entirely reasonable to expect that where there are college girls and beer, there would be some amount of sexual gratificatino to be had.

Are you talking about his coaching or, ummmmm ... other "functions"? ;o)
