The Aldon Smith thread

Do you think that total abstinence is the only possible cure for alcoholism?

Alcoholics can't drink because they can't control their drinking.
That's what makes them alcoholics.

I don't remember Aldon Smith actually being classified as alcoholic, though.

anytime someone who goes in to rehab for an extended time then comes out and drinks again is not to be brushed off. i believe he may go back to rehab, if it was determined he had been drinking regardless of how much,, which a million people who have alcohol issues do alot. its nothing to be ashamed of. his behavior at the airport can not be excused

there is no cure,, its a battle all their lives,, they have to resist any urge to drink, those around them have to be respectful of that, they have to attend their meetings,,, i do not know if aldon has been technically classified as a alcoholic but alcohol has played a major role in his issues over the years and it also sent him to rehab.

Abstinence is not 100%.

It didn't work out for the Virgin Mary

OK. If you say so.

Aldon ain't an alcoholic, he's just a young undisciplined dumbass, plain and simple. What that boy needs is an ass-whoopin. I'd whoop him like a bag of pancake mix with double the eggs if I was his coach. I may be old but he'd see me walk into the locker room and take off runnin like a dog with his tail tucked. They didn't make me a gunnery sergeant for nothin. The Corps don't tolerate that kind of tomfoolery and neither should the glorious 49ers.

It's ok Aldon! Get us around 15+ sacks and it will all be forgotten. Plus the officer used the word "appears to be " that means he was not sure?! So you maybe a crazy a$$ fool, but you're sober in my book.
