Poor Johnny Football...

It amazes me at the number of people who only have to avoid beating women and other stupid shit in order to continue make millions of dollars and somehow can't.

The same goes for anyone, doesn't matter if you're a millionaire or only making $10/hr, if you're a screwed up person it doesn't matter how much you make. He has tons of issues and needs mental help even if he weren't rich.

Nah, that would either be JaMarcus Russell or T-Rich, who I think is the only bust that two different teams have wasted a first round draft pick to acquire.

JaMarcus Russel was the first overall pick and got a 66 million dollar contract. He is the biggest bust of all time. He also was an addict, except he was addicted to cough syrup, koolaid and pain killer cocktails... aka sizzurp.

A grand jury has reportedly decided to indict Johnny Manziel on a misdemeanor assault charge stemming back to an incident between the former Cleveland Browns quarterback and his ex-girlfriend.

Manziel has had a controversial and rough offseason. He was cut by the Browns, dropped by two agents, has gotten virtually no interest from any NFL teams, and now has been reportedly indicted.

On Jan. 30, Manziel and his ex-girlfriend Colleen Crowley had an alleged altercation. Crowley said that Manziel struck her many times that night and suffered damage to her left ear. A protective order was issued against Manziel.

According to the KRLD report, an out-of-court settlement was reached by Crowley and Manziel, sources said.

Even if Manziel gets another shot in the NFL, it's likely the league would discipline him for the incident that has led to the reported indictment.

I think Ryan Leaf tops every "draft bust" list I've seen. But Russel was pretty bad

Jail time would be the best thing for him.
It will get him clean and realize he's been a douche bag..

Maybe he'll even grow up or find a boyfriend..

Why does this yahoo get the nickname "Johnny Football", instead of a hall-of-famer? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Johnny_Unitas

Because he played in the pre-showboat dumbassed nicknames era.

yup. Doesn't help that by the time one has the talent and survived the many life-long filters to reach the level of the NFL, you have a higher concentration of hyper aggressive, generally less-educated/less thoughtful people who by and large had fewer other options in life due to a pretty shitty upbringing and circumstances compared to the general public and the others at much lower levels of the game that didn't get through the filters due to talent or simply moving on to better available options than getting paid to smash your head into other large men for a living.

Then there's the whole CTE issue which seems to be creating this type of aggression where it did not previously exist in affected individuals.

Try reading this sentence out loud without taking a breath.

Most of us do avoid beating on women and other stupid shit, and we don't even make millions.

Well just speaking for myself. Won't speak for you folks here. Some of you are as crazy as Johnny.
