Vin+ 3,121 Posted March 29, 2011 Jets QB Erik Ainge, currently on the reserved/non-football illness list, recently disclosed that he was a "really bad drug addict," escalating from marijuana to prescription meds, alcohol, cocaine and even heroin. "I would've made Charlie Sheen look like Miss Daisy," said Ainge. His drug abuse began with a bong hit at age 12. Ainge, who has also been diagnosed as bipolar, disappeared for a month in the spring of 2009 to attend a detox center. He ended up sitting out the 2010 season because he went on a "two-week bender" before training camp. Realizing he had hit rock bottom, Ainge checked himself into a rehab clinic last July and has been clean since. Ainge concedes that his football future remains "uncertain." We wouldn't bank on seeing him in a Jets uniform ever again. Source: ESPN New York Interesting read. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

rzb+ 367 Posted March 31, 2011 I've never heard of this guy till now...and I don't really wanna heard about him again He's a mediocre Tennessee QB who most Vol fans have in a tier right under Peyton Manning's ballsack. So you wash up in the NFL.. and now admit to drug use? Not looking for a future anymore I suppose. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
