Wasn't a fan of the move at the time, but is looking all the more like a good Ireland move.
Sounds like to me he has given up and has reverted back to the pre-Dolphins Bess. He had quite a few issues in high school and college with the law but was a model citizen, and player, with the Dolphins. The trade to Cleveland seems to be what set him off to his old ways. Cleveland has a way of doing that to people.
This photo along with this mornings assault arrest tells me he has given up.
Sounds like he is on cocaine. His actions don't sound like someone just smoking weed.
Very sad over this. Obviously there have been some stressers in his life and no one responsible to ground him. My question is:
a) was resulting malaise over the trade to Cleveland the catalyst of this dysfunctional behavior? And/or did it put him into contact with new poor peer influences?
b) was trading him for next to nothing because of their inkling of what was to come actually actually one of Ireland and Philbin's better pro-active moves?
c) was this behavioral deviation totally unrelated to the locational and team status change?
I wish him nothing but the best going forward.
Bess has gone off the reservation. He always seemed to be level-headed when he was here, but in recent weeks his behavior on social media has been very odd.
He just tweets nonstop random stuff on rastafari, obscure rap lyrics or Beyoncé.
I love Rasta culture as much as the next guy, but there is something odd about the way Bess is spraying stuff all over twitter, with apparently no regard for his career.
