Rune Posted July 25, 2004 Share Posted July 25, 2004 Sadly, I think he has to be released here with the hope of him recovering and coming back to you but either way worrying about baseball is not going to help him overcome a nasty addiction.

CapeFish Posted July 25, 2004 Share Posted July 25, 2004 Why do they not have this kid in house arrest or in a treatment facility? Last time I checked all these drugs were illegal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shaq-Man Posted July 25, 2004 Share Posted July 25, 2004 ha look at his comments in this recent herald article: Top pick admits drug abuse Allison, who signed for a $1.85 million bonus -- money he said is being held in abeyance by the club -- returned home to Peabody, Mass., in May. The team has placed him on its restricted list, meaning he won't get paid until he is reinstated. ''It's basically all on me when I want to come back,'' he said. ``It has nothing to do with [the Marlins] unless they release me.'' However, Allison said he doesn't want to return if that means another rehab program. ``I don't really agree with that because I don't have a problem anymore and I haven't in a while. I haven't for four to five months.'' que idiota Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CapeFish Posted July 25, 2004 Share Posted July 25, 2004 Why don't the Mass. law enforcement arrest and try him for drug crimes? In Florida he would be in such big trouble. Why pass drug laws if you don't enforce them? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rune Posted July 25, 2004 Share Posted July 25, 2004 They stopped her at Oxycontin. 474262[/snapback] Is that something to be proud of? It's essentially just a cheaper alternative to heroin. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jonnylons Posted July 25, 2004 Share Posted July 25, 2004 Exactly. Oxycontin is basically legal heroin. It is a pain reliever. And boy is it. It doesnt surprise me that Allison in Wonderland would take some heroin IF he is off the Oxycontin. He needs that fix. And he was a lost cause when this rumor started blowing around.

CapeFish Posted July 25, 2004 Share Posted July 25, 2004 She was rehabbed and has not done it again. How many rehabs has Allison had already? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rune Posted July 25, 2004 Share Posted July 25, 2004 I wonder if he's ever done or has been doing crank. Doubt it but it's a drug that will destroy you before it kills you and also has I believe the lowest chance of recovery. HBO did another excellent documentary on it about a year ago. Looks like Allison will be joining Bush(I believe that's his name at least) as unemployed prospects. I would hope MLB addresses their diciplinary situation with the younger future stars.
