Bigantall Posted August 20, 2016 Share Posted August 20, 2016 Before I say this I just want to say it my own personal opinion, ok dareus goes to rehab is it just to take the heat off because he's suspended anyway might as well go, and these rehabs facilities are lot different than someone who doesn't have money we all know the bills organization is behind this, I just don't think marcell really gets it if you looked at his apology it was all show.

DC Tom Posted August 20, 2016 Share Posted August 20, 2016 yeah yeah laugh it up, those 28 days may just end up changing his life. I'm only laughing because we have a poster on PPP who insists pot can magically cure everything, including addiction...so who needs rehab when you can smoke more pot?

3rdand12 Posted August 20, 2016 Share Posted August 20, 2016 Rehab is the very definition of taking these things seriously. It's the best possible sign, not the worst. indeed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DC Tom Posted August 20, 2016 Share Posted August 20, 2016 well you DO know that rehab also entails counseling, right? That dude has had so many major life stressors it amazing he hasn't cracked yet. Yes, but programs to deal with depression exclusively aren't called "rehab," they're called therapy. Either way...I'm not particularly worried what his problem is. I just hope whatever he's doing works out for him. You might die laughing--that's half the posters here as well.

Let's also not forget that he did this 6 month 'drug intervention' after his last drug screwup. I don't know the truth here, but it sounds like a bit of a PR move.

Augie Posted August 21, 2016 Share Posted August 21, 2016 Those poor millionaires that get paid to play football. You seem to have a lot of resentment toward people who make a very good living, if only for a few years. I'm happy for people who do well, and would love to be in that crowd. Do you also realize they are actually human beings and that money does not cure all ills? They are people and have real S%#t in their lives. Real problems. At least if he's seeking help he knows he has something to work on, so I think I feel less sorry for him. Good luck to you. Let's also not forget that he did this 6 month 'drug intervention' after his last drug screwup. I don't know the truth here, but it sounds like a bit of a PR move. That's certainly possible, but, as they say, progress is not perfection. You hope the real message and lifestyle eventually takes. Weed alone is not the end of the world, but weed in the face of such extreme loss demonstrates a bad situation. THAT is a problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Agent 91 Posted August 21, 2016 Share Posted August 21, 2016 Where are you getting the "clinical depression" thing? You don't go to rehab for that. I'd guess he has a substance abuse issue probably including things other than pot. It has to be because weed? Na. People on here are talking like it's crack or something. That... yes you have a problem. Weed? Na as someone else said. You just like to get high. You are right no one loses family except for him. Now we are making up excuses for Dareus smoking pot. People think way too much into this. You my friend are thinking clearly. I never heard of clinical depression coming into play until now either You dont know what your talking about....people DO in fact go to rehab for clinical deparession I think he is talking about smoking pot?

Agent 91 Posted August 21, 2016 Share Posted August 21, 2016 Whatever assumptions people want to make based on no facts whether pro-MD or anti-MD make no difference here to my mind. The fact is that his behaviour was selfish and hurt the Bills organisation that put a hell of a lot of trust in him. It is inexcusable. That being said, we can only hope the next few weeks give Marcell a chance to effect lasting change in his life that brings him out a better person and a better member of the Bills organisation. Undoubtedly THE BEST POST YET Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because some states have loosened the laws does not lessen that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RyanC883 Posted August 21, 2016 Share Posted August 21, 2016 Best of luck to Marcell. Hope he is able to get the help he needs and get his life in order. And that he comes back in 4 weeks ready to wreck havoc on the NFL!! Step 1: get life in order. Step 2: resume pro-bowl career. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Agent 91 Posted August 21, 2016 Share Posted August 21, 2016 I'm no professional at reading people's faces but i like to think that I'm decent at it. I noticed (which more than likely all of you guys have also) that Marcel isn't comfortable giving interviews. The media and popularity may be getting to him in some ways also. I mean, just cuz you're amazing at a sport doesn't mean that you're born to be in front of a camera with flashing lights everywhere you go. Marcel probably just wants to get away from everybody asking him questions about the same things over and over and over again.

Na as someone else said. You just like to get high. What is it called when you continue to smoke despite it being against your employer's rules and you are losing millions of dollars in income while subject to public disclosure (and as shown here - ridicule) of your partaking? Is that still "just like to get high"? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Augie Posted August 21, 2016 Share Posted August 21, 2016 Marshawn got crucified for it Ricky Williams didn't do so well either. I don't want to see Marcel with a blackout visor, and certainly not in a wedding dress! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
