I agree.

I was watching the HR Derby with my dad and he goes "There is a kid that had the world by the balls, pissed it away, and he was given a second chance, and took advantage of that"

God knows you have always been there for me

Not even partly.

Dumb azz makes good.

That's it.






If you have to announce it to the world.......it's not a good story.

The best stories are never told in the first person.

Certainly can see your point of view. If sharing his story helps keep him clean and sober and can somehow have a positive affect on someone else struggling with the same addictions, what is the harm in that?

On a side note, I love that Jason Stark called out A-Rod for not participating. At least someone is willing to point out what a PHONY he is...
