Over a VIP table in a nightclub, I want to puke. All that talent and future wasted for a f(*&^*ing table. He was projected to be a 35+ HR 100 RBI guy for the Giants.

How freaken upsetting! All that talent gone to waste!!!!

Have you all noticed how we are seeing more and more of stories like this one. Remember Ambiorix Burgos? My barber here in NY knows him personally and told me some wild stories of him. Just insane how these kids have no education even after making it to the big leagues. They should have life coaches and all that. Or even freaken educational courses. Estos campesinos are lacking self discipline in life.

What does the 2 million have to do with this accusation??

What Tigre said is right, this little kids with no educations should be given at least a course of conduct and discipline. They believe that because they are filthy rich they are "Trujillo's" in their respective hometown. We haven't heard the whole story but the fact that he is involved and is the main suspect is a shame.

i agree with the last two posts. a similar incident happened to a phenom in my area (USA) a few years back. this kid was drafted by the yankees at 18 and given a million dollar signing bonus (this infuriated steinbrenner as it was during the time he was not in control of the yankees) the kid stepped into a fight involving his brother and was boddy slammed and dislocated his pitching sholder. never was the same afterwards. i know this is a different type of altercation but jealous locals will always try to provoke these kids (not saying this was the case but quite probable) and a life coach would seem to be a good idea. the NBA has been known to provide these coaches for foreign players and those straight out of highschool and it has proven to be very beneficial. sad story indeed
