Carl Eller is still struggling to keep things together (PFT). Eller has really tried to turn things around and do good things, but he's still got issues.
The Vikings have signed Gus Frerotte (Star Tribune). I'm not going to despair until he makes it through training camp. Hell, I'll even convince myself he'll be decent if he plays, handing off to Adrian Peterson and Chester Taylor and occasionally chucking a bomb to Bernard Berrian.
Alcohol is an addiction one as in many addictions there is no cure.This addiction will follow him till the day he dies always 1 step from trouble.
ReplyDeleteI have to totally agree with you on this one guy!
ReplyDeleteI don't know anything about Carl Eller, and I have a tough time passing judgment on other people's character and problems without knowing the facts.
ReplyDeletePV - change the title of the blog back to Pacifist Viking - it's a more unique title, and seems to describe the content a little more accurately. Plus, I never got the toothache thing, and it always sort of made me cringe.
Being an addict never leaves you, it's a way of life. You choose to do your vice, nobody makes you, nothing can "cause" you to to continue with your problem. You have to "be the man" and not let your addiction define you. Always be aware that you can falter, not letting a substance control your life. It's not an easy or pleasant road.
ReplyDeleteNobody likes toothaches. Except for you and that crazy Russian, of course.
ReplyDeletePerhaps PV's CandyLand, something that makes us happy. We'll deal with the toothaches later and then you can change it to PV's Dental Office and really take care of business.
