"How do you know Pete Rose has a gambling problem? You weren't even alive in the early 80s. Have you seen him make any bets personally?

But there was no tmz back then so yeah, addiction is just a myth, the people following him around with cameras are to blame, and I'm just a religious nut bag who doesn't want anyone to drink or gamble.

I don't know if he has an alcohol problem, nor do I care. He has a problem completing passes on a Sunday afternoon and a seeming problem abiding by agreements about off field behaviour the rest of the week.

I'd be surprised if the Browns persevere with him for another season and I'm struggling to see why that would be a mistake right now.

I can give you another Browns player who went to rehab for PR reasons.

This is posting 101. Folks like thay3r and ludacris (obviously smart poasters) can hold disagreeable positions and not lose their minds to counterposts. Bucco jus goes full ****** at 100mph

Those are things addicts who have been in rehab do. They lie, cover up their activities, and keep doing the exact same things even after huge negative consequences.
His lies are also things people do that have unreasonably strict
Parents/bosses and don't want their parents/bosses to know they are drinking. So every high school kid who had lied about drinking or lied about where they were or who they were with is an alcoholic in your eyes? Do you have a life? Have you ever been outside your house? You seem like you have lived a very naive and sheltered life.

Probably ruled out for PR reasons to cover up for him showing up to the facility drunk

Nah first-round picks always get at least one extra unwarranted shot to make it in the NFL. Somebody will claim him as their pet reclamation project.

He should be given another chance in an offensive that isn't trying to be so traditional which is probably why McClown was the original starter.

Or he was ruled out with a concussion for PR reasons cause the Browns hate him and want to punish him for the latest video.

Let him do what he wants in private; he's not breaking any laws. If the Browns want to be morons and bench him again, it's just another lol Browns since they seriously haven't gotten one thing right in the past 10 years.

If anything, probably best not to be taped doing these things even if they are innocent.

I also don't think he has had a serious problem with alcohol and is a kid having fun. He has yet to be arrested for any alcohol related incident. I'd be much more concerned about his temper, which may or may not be because of alcohol, but no reason to automatically assume that is the reason.

Addict is a pretty serious word. Dude is an in shape NFL QB and the worst social outcome of his drinking has been misdemeanors in a college bar. Sorry I'm not happily ready to throw the alcohol addict tag on him
