Definitely in a downward spiral. Hope he realizes it before it's too late.
Are his friends now worried he'll die and their golden egg will be gone?
Might be part of it, LB. But at the rate he's spending it, the Gravy Train is going to run out of gravy in a couple of months anyway. I have to believe some of his friends are genuinely concerned about his well being. Man, coke and booze- a bad combination.
What I hope anyway that people can take away from this situation is that addiction grabs people from all walks of life. Here's a guy who lived a cushy life from childhood, was blessed with immense talent, and still is literally killing himself because addiction controls his life. I can't say I feel bad for the guy but it's sad lot to see that's for sure.
Just one of the higher profile ones, but not the only one in a long list. Heath Ledger- Phillip Seymour Hoffman, Michael Jackson maybe Prince. Back in my day, Jim Morrison, Jimi Hendrix, and Janis Joplin.

True enough Nickers. JF is probably only concerned where his next fix is coming from. Shades of Al Pacino playing Tony Montana in Scarface, burying his nose in a mountain of coke near the end of the movie. Substance abuse will do that to you.
If you believe every human life has value, it's sad to see someone drug his away.

Strangely enough, when I see a troubled young man, I like to see a happy ending.
Not judging your way, though.

Has the story about how Prince died ever come out?

I feel sorry for the kid. I felt and still feel he has the talent, but not the discipline to make it as a pro. Hope everything turns out for the best for him.

Saddest part is that it seems that the folks above reached a level of brilliance and/or talent where self destruction became the next step.
Frankly, it makes me appreciate the fact that I'm an average guy who still enjoys life's simple pleasures.

I never followed JM off the field at A&M. But anytime I could catch this kid on the field at A&M. JM was amazing to watch. I don't care if it is Arena or CFL. I want to see that JM again. It also shows how tough it really is to step out of the shadows of a NCAA College Game into the Professional League at the Highest Level. But choosing your life over your Lifestyle? Come on Johnny & Good Luck..

No, but there's rampant speculation it was an accidental OD on prescription painkillers.

Well said, what kind of person wants to take bets on another's death - you should boot that idiot off the board.
-
We should start a death poll. Will he die this year or next year? Who knows it'll be fun! Winner get my Johnny Manziel Jersey.

Home Alone part 2. Sounds like the Water Bandits may need the Helliiicopper!! Again.. sorry could not pass
-
Although he made our team look foolish. I wouldn't wish bad on anyone. He needs to pull his head out of his ass and go to rehab for the obvious reason not for reason like "to be a better person"
-
He's not missing.
-
He didn't go missing in NYC. Guess where he was? Yep, you were right.
