I've never seen a recovering alcoholic with the "one beer is ok" mentality be successful.

Who knows how long he will last.

It's possible he's not an alcoholic.

There are differences between true alcoholics and those that abuse alcohol. I'm not going to get too deep into it but I have a good friend who's a counselor that could explain it a lot better than I can.

This touches on what I'm talking about.

Can alcoholics return to social drinking?

Alot of people probably considered me an alcoholic when I was going through my divorce. Divorce can bring out the best in people.



P.S. I'm a casual drinker now, and I'm doing just fine now. 🍸🍻🍷

I can't wait to see what his first move as GM is going to be.

Bobby Beathard is one of my heroes. His endorsement lends a tremendous amount of
credibility to the McCloughan hire in my mind.

Now, if Scot could just go out and duplicate Beathard's 1981 draft.

1. Mark May
3. Russ Grimm
5. Dexter Manley
6. Larry Kubin
8. Charlie Brown
9. Darryl Grant
12. Clint Didier
UDFA. Joe Jacoby

I've seen this before but I'm just as amazed every time I see it.

Were any other NFL teams drafting that year??

Too high a bar. This may be the best single draft slate ever. I'm biased but '81 was insane.
