At least hotties were involved. If you are going to relapse, it might as well be for hot women. Generations of men in my family have squandered fortunes on slow horses and fast women.

Because alcoholism is such a laughing matter.

Because alcoholism is such a laughing matter.

I find it funny when a guy tries to blame his screwing around on alcoholism or sex addiction etc. Just admit that you are a horn dog and alcohol comes along as part of the landscape. I can respect those who profess a weakness for the ladies and gambling without trying to find some "disease" as a crutch or excuse. Sorry Josh, I'm not buying. Apologize to your wife, but drop the excuses.

Good luck, Josh.

Didn't you get the memo? In contemporary America, nobody is guilty of lacking self control. Everyone is a victim (of genetics, upbringing, something). Fifty years from now, and we'll be locking up the next David Berkowitz's dog.

This.

 

The apologetic and condoning behavior our society has adopted is the reason respect and values in this generation have gone right down the toilet.

 

And the toilet has been flushed.

 

Twice.

Damn. That's s*****, I feel for the guy. Living in the area where he played most of his Minor League ball we've seen how hard he fought to get back into Baseball, and a relapse is so sad to hear about. I just wanna know why he f***ed around on his wife, shes HOT!

Be a man and admit you are a lowly dog that can't resist all the dripping wet hotties available to you. At least we could respect that kind of honesty.

He did admit it, right around the time of the incident, privately to his family and the organization. He doesn't need to tell the world every mistake he makes. Yeah, he was drunk and horny, but often times the two go hand in hand. Who the f*** are you to judge?

I'm judging him for being a weasel and using his addiction as an excuse. f***ing around is fine. If you get caught, own up to it like a man.

And people wonder why I called him out for defending Cabrera in such a way. For Hamilton, who didn't get behind the wheel mind you, it's our society that makes excuses. For Cabrera, it's Dipre making excuses.

Lmao, really dude? He didn't mention Josh Hamilton specifically. Wanna bump another thread doc?
