what the hell they talkin about the "devil" is still in him? Man please he was havin a little fun...wow, haters to the left, haters to the right.

If he was doing that every night, then I can see a problem but he is a recovering alcoholic, that doesnt mean he has magically become an infallible person.

Thank god that wasnt Terrell Owens or something, tho.

Idiot? He's an addict. I've never been an addict but if you know about them then you know how hard it is to stay clean and sober, especially with the temptation in his line of work (aka beer and p*ssy after game). Was it foolish? Yes. Definitely feel sorry for the guy though. Not really sure I want to pile on him.
Thank you, Rick Brunson.

Addicts are idiots.

I can be sympothetic to an idiot. An addict displaying idiotic behavior is an idiot.

He made a choice to quit heroine. He chose to be sober. He chose to fight.


Tittie kissing in a bar is not a disease.

No, tittie kissing in a bar is every man's idea of a great night out.

Most addicts are addicts though because of an inability to cope with emotions. The addiction is an addiction because drugs do a great job of suppressing bad feelings. Most addicts need/want continued support and they have relapses because most typically aren't wired to deal with emotional issues. Most addicts that relapse chose and will continue to choose all those things you mentioned, it just so happens that the addiction prevails during a relapse. Most addicts hate what the addiction does to themselves yet cannot control it, hence why it is often referred to as a disease.

Yup. It's WAY beyond being an idiot. Was it stupid to try it initially, yes it was.

But once you're addicted, it's a different story. Your body and mind can't function without the drugs or alchohal for quite awhile. It IS a disease.

And when you stop taking it and finish up the withdrawal, it's still in your mind. Temptation is extremely strong to a recovering addict.

And we don't know if the guy was drinking for the record. It does not show one drink in his hand. Just him f'ing around with some hot chicks.

I'm pretty sure that if it was Owens, people would be saying "He's just partying." Hamilton is a recovering addict though. It's a different story.
