When John Lucas gives up on you, you know you're in deep sh*t. What a waste. “Life coach” fires JaMarcus Russell | ProFootballTalk
I didn't know someone you hired and pay, could fire you. That is funny and sad at the same time. Don't know what to say about JaMarcus...if he doesn't want to take his life seriously, then he wont' get any sympathy from me. Mike Vick did worse but at least he's trying to rehabilitate his life. I can support and respect that.
Vick on his worst day has 1000 times the work ethic Jamarcus ever showed in the pros. Jamarcus is the poster child for the rookie salary scale. And I'd be willing to bet he's blown through most of that guaranteed money by now. Then you're a better man than me. I have zero sympathy for someone who willingly throws away God-given talent worth millions of dollars.
I think everyone did. Nobody saw him tanking like this when he came out of LSU. There were those that didn't think he would do well in the NFL, but I don't think they anticipated failure of this magnitude. Pity.
