So he missed a few workouts and lost some muscle mass? Doesn't mean he's an addict. He said himself he's doesn't party and he's not drinking anymore. Let the man live

You have to be kidding me. Every addict lies... a lie is what they live. Manzeil says he isn't drinking anymore? And you believe it?

There are many people on this site who excuse weed, alcohol abuse, other drugs as being just harmless fun. They are not harmless, and excusing abuse is either denial or enabling. I suspect that most who OK it here are addicts themselves in denial, or are enablers.

It doesn't take many visits to a rehab center, or to AA meetings to see the results of addiction.. even to weed. And it is horrifying to watch a loved family member turn into a zombie, stealing, lying, a hollow form of their former selve, living in the gutter to follow an addiction.

It is terrible to see what is happening to Manziel as the downward trend is accelerating. Knowing the course addiction takes he is currently beyond help because he doesn't own the first step. It is beyond sad ... it is gut wrenching.

It was funny at first when he struggled in the NFL, because he was such a pompous arse. It's not funny at all anymore.

It's really sad to see.
