I kept going from "This kid is a spoiled douche who's had everything handed to him" to "He's just a kid who is not ready for anywhere near the level of his fame"
I think his family coming from money that they didn't have to earn didn't help

So we find out he is an immature prick? What did we not know?

I don't see what this has to do with anything. There are players who came from nothing who get famous who do similar stuff.

Why can't it be both?

There is more than one way to end up at the point of being a jackass.

This article paints the Manziels especially his father Paul in a bad light IMO... Paul Manziels comes across as a real douche and its no wonder the his son is following in his footsteps... The family almost seems bitter towards the entire university

That's pretty much what I got from this. I thought the part where Manziel told his family he was tired of the attention in the restaurant was especially ironic, considering that his father turned around and gave him more attention by contributing to this article.

So let me understand something
They are tired othe publicity and the press and the constant hounding
So they let a reporter follow their every move for three or four days to document how tired they are I the publicity?

His father defended him too, getting banned from the TexAgs message board and then, after borrowing a friend's login, getting his friend banned too.
OK...that's funny.

I haven't checked our boards today but I'm going to go out on a limb and say a good number of our fans are pretty rustled about this.
I didn't expect his family to throw so many shots at the university. Some of the compliance stuff I don't think he understands honestly.

I stopped in the middle, but is he really bitching about cops giving him a chance to move his car instead of ticketing him?
Is that what that walk a mile in my shoe tweet came from?
I would love it if the cops knocked on my door instead of ticketing me.
Back to the article.
ETA: did his friend drop out of college to be his personal bitch?
