Unfortunately, I just broke off a relationship with someone whose son has had trouble with drugs. It just got to be too much. God Bless all of you who have family members addicted to drugs and are dealing with this national tragedy. It's an awful thing.

Thanks for reaching out and all the best to you and your family! As has been said, there are a few things more important than football.

St Chris was wonderful. He was there until about 2 months ago and is now in a sober living environment that is outstanding.

He has an outstanding sponsor, recently landed a great job, and appears to have completely bought in to the program.

We are blessed

See y'all when the Hogs come to town.

WPS, brothers. God Bless and ....

This is the absolute best thing i have ever read on the rant.

As someone that had to choose to keep drinking or live, i chose to die. God gave me another chance (or 10) and i finally realized sobriety is wonderful.

I will never be critical of you drinkers, i just cant do it.
