Practicing While Intoxicated

Dan Campbell says he's seen it.

From the linked article:

“I remember I had a guy in Miami, god he loved ball,” Campbell said, via Dave Birkett of the Detroit Free Press. “He was a dynamic football player, but he came in every day just reeking of alcohol. He was probably on a bender for who knows how long, but god he loved football. He showed up, he didn’t have any M.A.’s [missed assignments], he hustled non-stop, and it’s like, you know what? You’ll find a way to make that guy work. Not saying we want those guys, but he loved ball, and he had success. And he’s still playing today, by the way.”

if you're wondering 🤔

Campbell did not identify the player. Campbell was with the Dolphins from 2010 to 2015, spending most of that time as tight ends coach and ending his tenure in Miami as interim head coach.

If he knew this guy was showing up to practice intoxicated and assuming he drove himself to said practice and nothing was done in the form of reprimanding, I have zero respect for Campbell as a coach or a person.  

There's no way to know whether the guy drove himself to practice or not. It's an assumption.

I'm sure the early Panthers teams understand. If you haven't read the book by Jason Peter I suggest you do.

He and Whitley made Collins look like a choir boy of choir boys.

Madness back in those days. 

 

Name of the book, please.  I'd like to read it.

Saying that someone "reeked of alcohol" is very different than saying they were intoxicated.  A guy I played with in college came to practices and just reeked of it, but he wasn't intoxicated.  He was just sweating it out the day after.

FWIW.

I've known guys like that that have gotten DUI's on the way to work the next morning, or have the ignition breathalyzer thing and can't start their cars til 2-3pm

Actual quote from John Robinson 

"I was lying the whole time and the crazy thing is people loved me for it. What I really wanted to say is, 'I shot heroin last night and smoked crack and watched eight hours of pornos.'"

"I'm a fraud."

    • He talks way too much about his time in Seattle and Russell Wilson and how they built that team in 2012.   I won’t fall for any of it until I see them play for a year 
    • Lol people like you are so silly and the only reason I seem to care to log on to post these days. How can you sit there and say Bryce was the reason Williams hurt his knee on that play. Maybe it's because you dislike Bryce so you are somewhat blind as to what actually happened? Not quite sure but maybe you should get your eyes checked. Williams hurt himself by trying to make a cut after spinning around to make that catch. Pause it at 3:24. Had he landed and ran like normal instead of going to plant his foot in the ground and make a cut he doesn't get hurt. Don't put that on Bryce. That was 100% Williams fault he got injured
