Or others like him? . . . ex-child celebrities, people like that, who have the world on a platter and screw their lives up. I definitely believe you reap what you sow.
In the example of Mo, I think he feels lost without football - that is the one tool God gave him to succeed in this world and he doesn't know what to do without it. He has completely spiralled downward.
What do you think?

Maybe for some former child actors that were deprived of normal childhoods by overeager parents and studios, but for Maurice Clarett, none. His troubles took place in adulthood, or at least the semblance of adulthood (college). I rather reserve my compassion for someone who truly did not deserve misfortunes that befall them.

No, he had a God-given talent and chose to blow it. He has no respect for himself or others. People have gone out of their way to give him every chance possible and to help him and he's thrown it all away. Those people who made excuses for him only enabled him to continue his bad-boy behavior. He's the epitome of a spoiled brat.
I found it interesting that you said he feels lost without football. He probably does. But, to get where he was, he had to be in college. There were plenty of opportunities for him to excel in something other than brute force. He blew it. Now he has to pay the consequences.

he's not that good, if he really wanted to play football he wouldnt be running a 4.8. He has no work ethic no determination no zeal; after his lawsuit he should have worked harder to achieve his life dream of being in the nfl but he did'nt, he's a failure a complete failure y should anybody feel sorry for him? got to work for respect and thats what he didnt do

I'm angry at people like him who throw away perfectly good chances of being highly seccessful right out the window.
He went from being an All-american college football player to some wasted, violent, stupid, drug fiend.
Great example of 1st to worst.

not really, if he did the crime, he should do the time.
