Montee Ball is returning to the place where he found football stardom.


It's also where the drinking that destroyed his personal and professional life began.





Ball won’t be taking classes at the University of Wisconsin this summer as a gridiron hero. And even though he’s still young enough to play professionally at age 26, Ball has no interest in that kind of comeback.


Ball will be a regular student with completely different goals than when he left for the NFL four years earlier....

I guess that explains the fumbles.

I'm glad to read that he's taking responsibility for his bad choices and is determined to improve himself so he can become the best he can.

[Northman]

Kind of explains a lot but good on him with getting help. Addictions are hard to kick.

I doubt doubt it. 4 times a week is about par for a student at the University of Wisconsin

A historian of Sweden insists that the Swedes right up until the 20th century used to turn their grain into vodka. Then they finally figured out that "starvation is even worse than being sober." (https://www.quora.com/What-did-Sweden-look-like-in-the-1800s)
