Lack of support system for Gregory?

[Macnalty]

No cure or support system can work if Gregory is not able to buy into the scheme. Wish it was so simple as blaming the support setup. I hope he gets help and goes on to have a great life. He cannot be trusted at this point in time IMO.

It doesn't have to be that absolute. You can root for him to turn his life around and not root for him to come back to the team.

for me it does

Well that's pretty harsh because you are basically saying, I hope he never comes back to the team, and he bottoms out in life.

Yes a natural born idiot...i hope that he never gets to play a down in this league. There are too many young men that would give anything for a chance and will do it the right way. He needs to just get a 9 to 5 in Colorado...and be happy.

He isn't getting a 9-5 in Colorado If he can't pass a UA.

I hear this all the time. Move to Colorado, weed is legal.

Not if you want a job. The rules have not changed.

You get injured on the job.................expect a UA, and if tested positive......there will be repercussions just like every other state.

I was saying move to Colorado if you want to be out of the league...sorry for the confusion. But yes...any company can place that as a requirement.

Oh, I gotcha.

Kinda aimed my response at you and that wasn't my intent. Sorry about that.

A guy who needs a whole team around him to stop him from self destructing does not belong in the NFL.

If he needs mental help ...... go get it and stop wasting the Cowboys time.

He was immature and drafted with major red flags... using a high draft pick... this whole situation is an organizational failure...

You can criticize the team for drafting Gregory in the first place. But to criticize them for not providing an environment in which he could succeed is excuse making and enabling at it's finest. This guy did this to himself. He had an opportunity to play for the most recognized franchise in the world, with physical ability to become a star and make millions. And he blew it. Just pathetic.

This isn't a grade school kid. He's just an idiot. He was failing tests left and right at Nebraska. It isn't the Cowboys job to baby him at every step of his days. He made the choice and is now paying the consequences as are the team. He's a grown man.

 

[TellerMorrow34]

No thanks

He's a grown *** man...

This.

I'm sick of hearing about support systems and stuff for these guys.

If you want to play in the NFL and not be suspended stop using drugs.

Period.

It's on you.

No one comes to my house all the time to make sure I don't drink myself into oblivion and screw up my job. No one should for these clowns either.

I can probably answer this myself... the team maybe doesn't care as much about its players as we are led to believe...

With all of the for-profit business aspects of this organization, the unveiling of the Star at Frisco etc... as long as the money is coming in
the team can afford to be shorthanded player-wise every year because the bottom line business doesn't suffer that much...

I'm sorry, but blaming the front office for not providing a strong support systemperature is ludicrous. These are grown men given a chance to be a millionaire, and they aren't able to stay off a banned substance? They get no sympathy from me. Ron White said it best. "You can't fix stupid."
