This crap about mugging people for their cell phones, driving around with guns in his car and a half-full bottle of vodka, it's sad.
On the other hand, it's no sadder than a million other similar stories of two-bit criminals who don't have any athletic ability.

Not quite sure I follow. He couldn't shape up under the structure of Jim Tressel. Not sure what an NFL program could have done differently, other than throw lots of money at him. He was also picked up by Denver last year. Couldn't make it and was cut rather quickly. It is a sad story, but I'm not sure if he was destined for anything else.
