get that monkey off his back. Best of luck to him.

Is a monkey on your back worse than a monkey on your foot?

The quotes are PR so we don't know if he is the one pushing this. I hope he is because the chances for success otherwize would be low.

Interesting that the article references that Manziel "entered treatment," but does not specify treatment for what. Many will conclude that it's likely for alcohol abuse/dependence, but perhaps not.

It may not come out but from what I have heard, it rhymes with "propane".
February 2nd, 2015 at 11:24 AM ^
Propane accessories?
Seriously though, I hope for him he figures out what an opportunity he has in life.
I have my doubts though to the validity of this as something that will actually clean up his act.

He'd probably do the same thing now that he is older. Most athletes don't realize that change is necessary until after the fact. Now I'm pulling for Manziel to come out the other side.

What is this, incriminating evidence for ants?

Hopefully this was his choice, not his people telling him he needs to do this. Otherwise, it's unlikely to stick.
February 2nd, 2015 at 11:07 AM ^
Manziel is still young, though and if it sticks, he will have a lot of hppy and content times ahead...with ot without football.

and support he needs, but it takes self determination to make it. Best of luck to the kid.

Really hope he gets himself straightened out and comes out clean on the other side. If he volunteered to go, then that's great for him. Takes a lot to voluntarily admit you've got a problem.
While I'm not really that confident that his NFL career works out one way or another (too small, what made him special in college by scrambling around sandbox-style trying to make plays will get him killed in the NFL), he's certainly got a lot of talent, and I'm glad to see he's taking steps to ensure that it doesn't go to waste.
Good luck, Manziel.

Johnny Manziel is a tool.
That is all.

this is a post where I would have been cool with more posts
February 2nd, 2015 at 11:19 AM ^
Personally, I think Manziel is kind of a tool and I hope somebody more deserving becomes the starting quarterback for the Cleveland Browns. For his family's sake, I hope he gets his problems fixed. But as for overall success, there are people who are more deserving.

This is going to sound harsh, but screw his family. They tried to raising Johnny with the mindset, Money will solve everything.
Hey Johnny if you don't drink your senior year of high school, we will buy you a new SUV.
That's a true story.
His mom and Dad are loud and obnoxious.
He's getting what he deserves.
February 2nd, 2015 at 11:47 AM ^
...but I was thinking more of his future wife and kids.
Especially the kids, who will have had no choice in the matter.
February 2nd, 2015 at 12:23 PM ^
Hopefully for the sake of humanity he chooses not to reproduce....
February 2nd, 2015 at 11:48 AM ^
It's probably better to pity people like that rather than hate them.
February 2nd, 2015 at 1:28 PM ^
There is a story about a man who walks 21 miles as PART of his commute to work on this same board. That man has been given nothing but does what he needs to do. Why the hell should I pity someone who has been given everything and who has failed to take advantage of his opportunities? Hell, he helped derail other players on the Browns by his in-season party. He isn't worth pity.
February 3rd, 2015 at 5:56 PM ^
It's okay to pity both of them. You can even pity one of them more than the other if you'd like! None of that is against the rules.

The first step is sincerely realizing there's a problem. Let's hope he's sincere.
I recall when Manziel was entering the draft, and some were comparing him to Russell Wilson because of height and size. The big difference between the two is what's between the ears. Wilson is a smart*, hard-working young man; Manziel less so.
* Play to end the game yesterday notwithstanding.

Who could have foreseen that a kid who was a well-recognized jerk in college would continue to be an idiot once he's handed millions of dollars?
February 2nd, 2015 at 11:50 AM ^
Money has nothing to do with he was already a billionaire. The issue is he never had to worry about accountability or truely work hard until he went to the NFL.
February 2nd, 2015 at 1:16 PM ^
Come on...his family isn't worth billions. A couple of millions, yeah, but it's not like the guy is Johnny Koch Brothers or something. Agree that he is a tool--a spoiled brat with overly indulgent parents. The Browns were fools for drafting that guy at all, let alone as high as they did.

Cleveland is where talented QBs go to fade into obscurity.
February 2nd, 2015 at 12:00 PM ^
"Talented" QBs go to Cleveland because they are not as talented as the media hypes them out to be.
