[Guest Lobo]

It's really hard to get banned from Canada.

Won’t a dwi do it?

Because we really needed another Johnny Douchebag thread.

[4th and 5 4914]

I, for one, am shocked.

[texifornia 56566]

It was domestic violence, not (exclusively, perhaps) blow? That's a whole lot less funny.

It's sort of the perfect thread title for the next phase of his life.  This should get us through the next several years of Manziel mishaps.  Mishaps seems a bit trivial for domestic violence, drug addiction, and the eventual headline that he died penniless in a hotel room 5 miles outside of Reno.

Deadspin did a nice little encapsulation: https://deadspin.com/something-happened-with-johnny-manziel-and-theyre-not-s-1832939934

Quote

Manziel said last summer that we was required to see a therapist every week, attend mandatory doctor visits, and submit lithium tests each month. Before the CFL allowed Manziel’s first club, the Hamilton Tiger-Cats, to sign him last June, they conducted an “assessment by an independent expert on domestic violence (the CFL has a formal policy on violence against women), a review by legal counsel, and an in-person discussion conducted by the Commissioner.”

The Alouettes said they were “disappointed” by the CFL’s decision, also noting, “We worked with the league and presented alternatives to Johnny, who was unwilling to proceed.” He had two years left on his contract when he was cut.

All of which is to say that the circumstances around Manziel’s sudden release are quite mysterious. Neither the club nor the league will say what Manziel did, or even what he was not allowed to do when he signed. For his part, Manziel seems like he is now going to try to play in the United States, and he recently expressed interest in the Alliance of American Football. However, it would seem overly harsh to cut Manziel and ban him from the league simply for exploring other employment opportunities.

 

[TwiceHorn 31322]

As noted, I imagine the conditions included therapy, taking his meds, and abstaining from drugs and alcohol and I imagine he violated some or all of these conditions designed to curb domestic violence or other misbehavior.

[Nicole44 22028]

So JFF is one of only three people to ever be banned from the CFL. Lmao. One was actually Ray Rice (but he never played the CFL just said he could never play after the elevator incident). The other was Justin Cox who was banned after being arrested a third time for domestic violence.

Yea tried to go for a soccer game a few years ago. Bunch of my buddies couldn't get in. Was not a fun trip

[Scheiss Meister 8399]

Manziel does such a good job of representing aggy.  Sucks that they are both from Texas, though.

Eh, take off, hoser.

[TonyTexas 10485]

Goo, let me start by asking you not to go on a rant because of this question. There is a Johnny Manziel thread that has been very active since this news broke 3 hours ago. Why the new thread?

[Bullneck 19027]

Please, if anyone has the link to Rapaport's (I think) video commentary of JFF's 4 interception outing with Montreal please post it.  It seems to have been scrubbed from the internet.

Bob Stoops has seen first hand how good Johnny can be. I wouldn't be surprised to see him give JFF a chance on the Dallas XFL team. I'd certainly go to some of those games.

Who? Is this the guy that played for aggy? 

[Bullneck 19027]

If you want to see JFF threads there are a bunch on TexAgs.  I'd stir the pot but I got banned until mid March.

I was assured by Looch that Kliff was going to give him a shot in the desert.  If Rosen sucks he could even be starting before the end of the year.

he'd be a hit with the upcoming XFL Houston team

I appreciate when news items are posted on their own. I'm not exactly following a fucking Johnny Manziel thread.

I thought their PM said everyone was welcome?

and if you want to go, why not just walk across somewhere other than a designated crossing?
