LOL @ The Zone

Whotta stand up guy....just couldn't cancel that SB party.

And he sure is dedicated. Calls the NFL offices every year on this day.

Does he actually speak? Does he hang up? Does he giggle?

The suspense is killing me.

The Last Thing I Intend to Say On Josh Brent Unless He Comes Back
I cannot and never have condoned driving while impaired. As a former fireman I removed too many dead and mangled bodies from vehicles where alcohol played a role.

I also cannot help but root for him to make a turnaround in his life. Whether he ever plays football again or not, I hope he stops drinking. I hope he becomes someone who can talk to kids about the dangers of alcohol. In other words, something constructive. I hope he somehow dedicates the rest of his life to the friend who died because of his actions. I do not believe most people can make that kind of impact while in jail. I would prefer jail be for the violent offenders who make all of our lives less secure. You can say driving impaired does that and I will not disagree with you. I just don't think the man is prone to violence.

Alcoholism is a disease and I prefer we treat diseases in ways other than jail when possible. In this case they determined jail was part of his sentence, but he will have a very long, strict probation afterwards. Justice spoke. I don't have to agree or disagree with the amount of punishment he is receiving. I simply pray the young man comes out of this as a changed person.

If I am Jason Garrett, I don't want him back. Not because of what he did, but because of how the DFW media circus will react and distract. I think the kid is a decent football player who could help this team, and if Garrett and the team want him back I will quietly root for him to do well for us. But if it were me, I would hope he stays retired from the NFL and focuses his life elsewhere.

I believe in 2nd chances. Many of us have had them. Not for the same thing this kid did, but a 2nd chance is supposed to be about starting over and moving on to better things. That is all I hope here for the person, and I am focusing on the person not the crime.

I do not drink. Never have. I grew up in the back room of the family bar. I was hustling pool from drunks when I was 6. I think alcohol destroys more lives than we will ever grasp. I've seen it destroy people I love. It is legal, and I cannot preach to anyone about how they should live their adult lives with regards to a legal activity such as drinking. However, I implore all my friends here that if you do drink, please do not get behind the wheel. It can have catastrophic consequences as this case demonstrates.

Peace.

That's just it. He absolutely can NOT help throwing things like that into any story, no matter the topic. The point always has to steer back to him in some way. I seriously think he has some kind of mental problem with this.

He was a walk on and Dr. Provost gave him the bad news about his knee and he unfortunately could never play college ball.

They don't keep records of stuff like that.
