I would like it if he succeeded. Great example of I fuged up and made it right if he can do it.

Agreed

[Panthro]

I'm always a fan of redemption stories. Ill be cheering for him but am not expecting much

[Proudiddy]

Wow he is fat as poo.

I hope he sticks to it and is successful the second time around.

Yep... Weighed in at 310 and has 20% body fat IIRC. They said he should play at 265-260 but if it's possible I'd rather see him at 245-250

If he doesn't stick to it he'll definitely be done in the NFL

[thefuzz]

I will pull for him, but I'm not sure why.

Many think that the NFL is like Hollywood, or being a rapper or something...I don't think most of the kids that are drafted realize how much hard work it is, and how much time it takes to be good.

[RelaxImaPro]

I know he's got a lot of haters and I'm not sure how this whole thing will pan out for him... but hopefully he makes it. It'd be nice to see him get a second chance and make the most of it. Haha, it'd be nice to see him go back to the Raiders... but I seriously doubt that poo is gonna' happen.

At least that would settle who is the biggest bust between him and Ryan Leaf.

I hope he comes back successful as well... I don't see him coming back this year though, I'm expecting him to get signed next year, maybe half way through the season this year if someone gets injured

His problem was always lack of effort. If he treats his body and his game like a professional dude can ball.

[SCMunnerlyn1]

I wish nothing but the best for him in his return. People forget how gifted of an athlete he is sometimes. It was always the work ethic holding him back and i'm glad to see he may finally get it.

[Roger Dorn]

Money is a helluva motivator.

That signing bonus got spent on "purple drank"

I hope he fails miserably. Again.

[BigSyke]

lol dont really care if he fail or not. would be a nice story though like mike vick.

[rscott94]

Episode two now in the OP



I think he has a good cast surrounding him.... But what I don't get is they want him to get back to what he was when he was with the Raiders. Why not try to make him better? They want him to weigh 265 and run a 4.8 40... Why not try to get him to 245-250 and have him run a 4.6?? You got to have him better than what he was in Oakland (shrugs).

[Falcons1stPanthers2nd]

I love his natural ability. It's unreal. Even at 320 pounds fat he's more athletic than most when they are 180. The biggest thing is proving his head is in it.
