Talk about crapping your career down the toilet. SMH

 

[SuperKevin]

I can see why he was cut in the first place. If he can't get seperation from a beat cop then how will he run away from DBs

 

[Cornelius]

The Lions could use this guy, he has dedication.

Could be worse, Calvin could've just up and signed with the Vikings.

Could be worse, Calvin could've just up and signed with the Vikings.

Yeah but the Vikings are a worthless franchise, granted the same could be said for the Lions.

 

[Cornelius]

Yeah but the Vikings are a worthless franchise, granted the same could be said for the Lions.

Or any team in Milwaukee.

Or any team in Milwaukee.

Brewers are doing pretty nice.

I'll never understand some of these young cats. Don't they realize what an honor it is to play for a professional sports team? You're part of a select few. Then they piss it away doing dumb shit.

 

[Cornelius]

Brewers are doing pretty nice.

If nice = losing record and never won a World Series, yeah they are real nice.

He's not arrogant. He suffers from mental illness. Not being sarcastic. This guy clearly needs help he won't accept.

Dave may have been right...

Before Titus Young was arrested three times in one week, the free-agent receiver told a former teammate about the mental issues plaguing him of late.Detroit Lions linebacker Stephen Tulloch encountered Young on a recent Miami-to-Detroit flight and listened as the wideout explained his disorder, which Tulloch refused to disclose.
"He's aware of the situation that he's dealing with and he showed me a paper and we went over it and I looked over it, and I understand it," Tulloch told the Detroit Free Press. "A lot of people laugh about it and ke-ke-ke about it, but it's real. He has head issues, and the Titus Young when he came in as a rookie and the Titus Young now is two different people.
"It's kind of like when you look at him, he's looking through you. It's different. You can tell there's something going on in his mind, in his head, and I hope that he can get help."
Young was arrested last Saturday after allegedly breaking into a residence and scuffling with deputies in San Clemente, Calif. One week earlier, on May 5, Young was nabbed in Moreno Valley, Calif., on suspicion of DUI, but later released. He was arrested 15 hours later for jumping the fence of an impound lot in an attempt to reclaim his black Mustang.
At his Tuesday arraignment, bail was set at $25,000 -- down from $75,000 -- but the 23-year-old remains in custody at Orange County's Theo Lacy Facility in Santa Ana, Calif. Young's next court date is May 24.
"He has a problem," Tulloch said. "Ain't no question about it. We had some long discussions and he showed me some things and I was like, 'All right.' The fact that before he didn't realize it, now he realizes it.
"He just needs help. Basically he's reaching out for help. He's asking questions and he wants to be cured. And it's tough when people laugh at him and think it's a joke. 'Oh, Titus did this.' "
The Titus Young jokes are over. He obviously needs assistance and he appears to be in the early stages of seeking it. Whatever remains of his football career comes second.

This is becoming a more and more prevalent problem in this country. People like you making excuses for a guy that's simply an arrogant dumbass, but are dead set on that they can be "saved"' from a "mental illness" that surely excuses their acts of idiocy because they have no control over it.

:gtfo:

This is simplistic IMO. Mental illness isn't a black and white issue. To say he's a complete write-off because you think he is ... is far too simplistic. On the surface, yes he's a loser ... but mental illness is not that easy a nut to crack.
