Just curious, after those pics of Manziel with rolled dollar bills in the bathroom dropped, was he ever drug tested?

What chances? Manziel hasn't been suspended or anything. Yeah, he fukked up in year one by not taking the job seriously, but Manziel plays for a team and coach that clearly is out to set that dude back or make it very hard for him to succeed. It's painfully clear Pettine wants Johnny :camby:.

Manziel is probably still a shythead regardless of the strides he has made, but he's not out here failing drug tests left and right like Blackmon and Gordon did. If he were, and he still was playing in the league, I'd co-sign with OP.

He does need to get his low-key alcoholism sorted out though. The fact he had the gall to say, "I don't have a drinking problem, the team has a problem with me drinking." is straight up :wtf: :what: :why:

manziel got multiple personal issues, and what 1 dui? thats not enough to ban dude.
Never had a DUI or even a warning, not in college or in pros. Always calls a driver when he's out.

That quote never happened. How do people believe only one Faux twitter account would report it? If it was real, you'd have seen & heard the actual audio played over and over on ESPN. It would have given sports media material for at least 48 hours worth of preach-ifying. Topics are hard to come by for some of those folks.

The stoop with dat dope fanny padding
Justin Blackmon was the #5 overall pick of the 2012 NFL Draft, going to the Jacksonville Jaguars.

Earlier this year his application for reinstatement to the league was denied, and he's on suspension indefinitely for violating the league's substance abuse policy.

Though very few details seem to be available, it looks like Blackmon had some issues with marijuana and 1 DUI.
He hasn't played since October 27, 2013.

I think he's served enough time for what amounts to be nothing major.

Meanwhile there's talk about Johnny Manziel not only getting YET ANOTHER chance to quarterback the Cleveland Browns....people in the media are arguing that Manziel deserves a chance to take Tony Romo's job with the Dallas Cowboys.

:martin:

We don't have all the facts with Blackmon, but if it's just weed and the DUI then he better be back next year

As far as Manziel goes, he hasn't done anything wrong except party which I'm pretty sure about 99.9 of the league does as well... It's just because it's Johnny, it's a big deal.

Johnny has a domestic violence incident. Along with pictures of the bruises to support the accusations.

What's going on with Blackmon is a shame because the Jaguars would be a dangerous team with him on the field but his personal issues have consumed him.
