Bengals Met with Joe Mixon

If he weren't a football player and potential draft pick, this wouldn't even be news. This and worse are happening right now, but because it's regular folks like us, it won't even make the news.

I'm not defending what he did by any stretch. We all have skeletons though. We have all done shitty things that we hope no one else finds out about. We all make mistakes, but most of us get to move on and not have it held over our heads forever. That's where I actually feel bad for athletes and celebrities. Any misstep is in the public eye and they get harshly judged for it, even though the people doing the judging has done similar or worse things. We just get to live in anonymity.

This kid could go on to make Pacman look like a saint. I think he should be given a fair shake to prove otherwise.
