Kellen Winslow Jr...How Did You Get Here Bro?

[ATL96Steeler]

Ex-NFL star Winslow II faces potential life in prison

I know there is some precedent here (Darren Sharper being one recent), but I wonder how in the hell with a former NFL star and Hall of Famer for a dad, a 2004 1st round NFL draft pick yourself, and millions of dollars do you land on the threshold of life in prison?

I don't get this? CTE?

At least one fourth of the population is retarded.

Well...2 out of 3 is fairly common in the NFL...no?

Has to be more to it.

25% is an awful lot of retarded people.

But something is wrong with this guy.

I think he was messed up prior to getting his melon banged around in the league....
That whole " he's a warrior" quote pretty much sent the message loud and clear his a few sammiches shy of a picnic!

This.

He was always crazy. Can help on the field, can hurt in life.

Take a quick mental poll everywhere you go... Coworkers... Family... This site... Just the PF alone brings this site up past 25%!

Could be CTE but could also be a lot of things. There are plenty of crazy, sick criminal types in this country & they work all types of jobs. Like Chris Rock used to say "whatever happened to crazy?". There isn't always a logical explanation to these type of things.

Soldier. Not warrior.

Stereotyping is fun, eh?

It’s only 15% at a Steeler game....

15%? Child, please! You and I both know it's closer to 65% at Steelers games.

 

[CaptainStubing]

i don't think this is a case of CTE. Dude was always off.

Yup, long history of being an idiot.....

It's a head scratcher I know, but doubtful that could be it. Maybe hard drugs as a youth?

Been to one...Had a blast too, but couldn't hear anything for a day or so afterwards.

Chalk him up to being another high profile nutcase I guess.
