Was he intoxicated at work? I don't understand why he had to go... what a man does at home is his own biz

Scotty Mac has gone on record saying his drinking had gotten out of hand.

There was enough respect not to air his dirty laundry.

If I had to guess I would say there was likely a drunk driving situation and having to use influence to cover it up situation.

My guess is that something happened at work drinking related or too many people reported something about him drinking related.

Also, when you're in jobs like the GM of a professional sports team - what you say and do outside of work matters. When you have a public facing job, you lose the whole "I wasn't at work so why does it matter" thing.

you're always representing the team and are compensated for that. What you do and say reflects on the team, for better or worse.

What about when you are United States Secretary of War?

McCloughan's wife accused Dianna Russini of trading "tips" for blowjobs, back in 2015

I think there's a lot of heavy drinking going on in most organizations

I think a lot of stuff goes on that would surprise a lot of people.

Two things:
1. I knew a guy who was a well known player and eventual coach in college - he told me that most coaches are raging alcoholics. Which I personally don't care but makes sense.

2. they're people, just like the rest of us. When I go to national commercial real estate development conventions (ICSC: Las Vegas/Austin/NY/Orlando etc) - the amount of cheating wives equals the amount of cheating husbands.

a majority of people in marriages aren't exactly happy. They mainly settled - which overtime turns into doing stuff with people because you're really not getting it in your marriage, most of the time for years. Being in a relationship that you're not sold out on is a hellish kind of loneliness.

ultimately, none of it surprises me. They're everyday people and do what most everyday people would do in situations like this - especially people who work super long hours.

im not saying it's right, i just believe it's a lot of situations of marriages. I've seen it a million times.

I just want one draft where I don't have to say "WHO?" after the pick.

I second this. (I am in the corporate world)

While not ideal and varies depending on ones morals - this is rampant in most segments I imagine. (not unique to the NFL)

I don't care for the pearl clutching either. Let adults be adults. Spend that energy on making our own lives better.

Important to note that was while he was with Washington...he got worse after he left SF

He has talked about this stuff publicly
time to lock in.
Day 1 was a success.
Two trades to go down 6 spots total, gained a 5th and flipped a 4th for a 3rd nearly 50 picks higher.

And we get all night and most of the day tomorrow to field trade offers to start the 2nd round.

I'm good with it.

There wasn't anyone available at 27 that was too good to pass up. This was a weak draft after about #15, No OL were taken until around there and then every decent one was scooped up. I've said this many times but when you're sitting at the end of the round you have to be really lucky and hope someone slides back. It didn't happen this year.
