Feel bad for him tho. Wonder if the pain killer addiction started in the NFL? For him to be where he is, he really has some serious problems, I can only hope he turns it all around.

The guy is at rock bottom, self inflicted or not, not a time to point and laugh. FTR the replacement ref joke was actually funny so I did like that one. Carry on…..

Rae Carruth, OJ, and Leaf….the Longest Yard getting longer.

Don’t forget ray ray. Just because he got away with it doesn’t mean he couldn’t have been the captain.

On Sunday, October 26th, 1997, the San Diego Chargers beat the Indianapolis Colts 35-19.

Had the Colts won, the Chargers would have had the first pick.

What could have been…

Actually, the Chargers would have probably still managed to pick Leaf.

- It is the only way to get them off marijuana and other drugs; forced withdrawal.

- Threats against staff members are dealt with severely.

- He will have plenty of time to read the Bible.

- Being cut off from marijuana and drugs gets their mind right. It produces a mind that can begin to figure out how to salvage their life.

- Being cut off from society forces them to deal with life without having to lean on anyone or any harmful chemicals.

Prison is a great program for druggies.

Well……looking back he never threatened a defense.

I think that picture on this article just captured his entire life.

Disappointment……………..

Jeff George is still available for fill in gigs so why can’t old Leafy get off his hooch and get on out there and sling the old pigskin around like he used to back against the College’s of the Blind and whatnot that he used to destroy.

He’s been givin countless chances to change…addiction is a horrible thing I’ve grown around it my whole life..but he has had plenty of opportunities to sober up and continues to blow it. No remorse for this bum rot in prison son.

Talk about two lives going in completely opposite directions.
