The fact that his dad was in the front seat is the most mind-blowing part of this to me. If that's any indication of the type of father figure he is, maybe that gives some insight into Von's boneheadedness. (Not saying it excuses it, just saying it may have contributed to it)
Possibly, or Von keeps pertinent information (like a suspended D/L) from his padre.
So what good does he do himself to continue apologize. I don't know if he was sincere or not his previous apologies. He's underminded himself with more problems but that doesn't mean it wasn't sincere. I hope this young man will get his head on straight because if stay on the field after this all over he's going to have brilliant career.
I posted the following in the other thread - IMO, Von was raised very well.
from a 2011 article:
rest - http://www.denverpost.com/ci_17966890Miller referred to not just NFL commissioner Roger Goodell, but also to some of his soon-to-be Broncos teammates as "Mister." He did the same for star NFL quarterbacks he will be expected to chase down ("Mr. Manning," "Mr. Brees"), explaining why he consented to have his name added to the players' lawsuit against the league.
"I like to show respect to those guys," he said of his pending Broncos teammates. "I haven't met those guys in person, so going by nicknames and stuff, I don't think that would be appropriate until we build a relationship and I can prove myself, gaining respect."
So where'd this come from? The same household and influences where the elder Von Miller was shocked to find out that his son was playing football.
"That was the way I was raised and the way we raised our children," said the father.
AND
from same article:
http://www.denverpost.com/ci_17966890When Miller rebelled and said he would transfer, Sherman responded that if he really wanted to leave, the coach would sign his release.
Von loaded up his 1981 pickup truck and started back to DeSoto. His phone rang. His father put it simply: "Turn around."
"It wasn't the right thing to do," Von, the father, said. "That's not who we are."
Said the son: "I pulled over. I objected and gave him my opinion, and I told him what I wanted to do. He said, 'No, the right thing to do is to go back and fix what you've done. You can't run from things.'

THIS ONES FOR JOHNWOULD YOU RATHER WIN UGLY, OR LOSE PRETTY?
The thing is, I haven't seen an apology from him. If you have, please share with me. The "apology" I was referring to was a tweet I though he sent but I didn't take that to be sincere. He needs to hold a press conference, take responsibility, and help out in the community.
Wow, I didn't realize he was arrested for trying to buy a firearm last month. This guy needs someone with common sense to hold his hand 24/7.
Miller was also arrested last month while trying to purchase a firearm when a routine background check revealed he had an outstanding warrant. In that case, Miller failed to appear for a court hearing on charges from last October when he was cited for careless driving and not having a license or proof of insurance.

I'm in the "screw Von Miller" camp until he shows me I should think otherwise!
I don't need him to apologize, I just want him to straighten his personal life out and get back on the football field.
he is charged with contempt of court in 2 different states.
those of you who continue to insist that von is only guilty of minor traffic violations are in for a rude awakening !
most likely the same ostriches who watched his first denial of a drug violation and could not see he was obviously hiding from the truth.
CAN WE PLEASE JUST SKIP ALL THE NONESENSE AND JUST TALK FOOTBALL?
