Look, flames said it and he just needed to own it, which he did already. A far cry from a few posts ago, where he didn't even remember saying it to begin with! I didn't realize you were now flames spokesperson? I'm sure he can speak for himself, which he has, which also kind of calls into question why you are trying to now be the authority on what he meant at all?

Your next paragraph only reiterated what I said in a post about 2 years ago, calling into question both his work ethic and predisposition to party too much. So I'm not sure your point here at all, other than I kind of nailed the prediction. You're right everybody misses predictions, some more than others, but I brought it up to show that my evaluations of players are more than just bluster and guessing. This gets back to the credibility of my evaluation of the Miami draft and also Henry as a player.

Compulsive tendencies and addiction impulses are forms of mental illness, so the "choice" that you seem to think he made may not be a rational one. On the surface to the likes of you, and of course the media, it looks like he just likes to go and party, but there is no say how in control of his mental faculties he actually is with regards to his hierarchy of social needs/desires.

Some people who go out partying a lot are just douche bags but the inability to control it when your career, finances and the rest of your professional life are on the line indicate something isn't quite right, so maybe judge the guy a bit less and hope he gets some help.
