you're exactly right, but somehow we were supposed to think it was awesome and he was just so full of swagger then, now we're supposed to feel sorry for him. it's hard to keep up on what's pc in regards to our feelings for johnny.

I understand when you dislike, even "hate," a player and hope that he fails, but it's another story when their personal life is turning into a train wreck.

I've been on the other side of this with Vince Young. Wanted him to fail in the NFL but I definitely started to feel bad around the time he was buying out entire commercial flights and getting in strip club fights...

No one is asking you to feel sorry for him, piggilicious
(I'm not asking that anyway [I shouldn't speak for others]).
Trust me: If I was looking for a group of sympathetic, faith-based folks, I wouldn't start on the SECr.

I just can't imagine living a life where I wished the worst for others.
Feels toxic, that's all.
But that's likely coming from the place in me that's currently trying to prevent the little humans/rugrats in my life from becoming jackasses.
To each his/her own.
Personally, I'm going to hope for the best for #2.
