SCSA showing signs of Drinking problems

[Guest The Grand Pubah of 1620]

Who fuckin cares? Just about everyone I know drinks at least a few beers everyday, do what's the big deal. This is where the internet news pisses me off. Let the man do what he wants as long as it doesn't hurt the show, and it's not.

[Guest El Satanico]

Wait a damn minute...

 

Austin is just now getting a divorce from his first wife?

 

The hell...

[Guest Choken One]

Wow. A very poigant statement there bucko.

 

 

Who fucking cares? What about his legions of fans across the world and the Employees of WWE that depend upon his ability to draw because that affects their job status and paychecks.

 

Drinking a few beers a day is one thing...It's another when you have a potential addiction to the substance (Alcohol).

 

Austin is in a state of depression right now with the severe probobility of his livlihood being stripped from his hands and feeding upon his addictions with this doesn't bode well for some one with a Violent Tempermental History.

that is called Choken One...

 

"As Long as he is on MY TV He can drink a Keg a Day and do three lines of Coke. He's there only to Entertain me, Idon't give a shit what he does to Himself...Dance Austin, your a Monkey Austin DANCE!"

 

well thats a paraphrase

 

They don't want anything to take Austin away from their TV they would sacrifice his health and Sanity as long as he gets to Say WHAT for them to chant.

You'll be hard pressed to find a bigger SCSA fan then me, but it's his life, let him live it.

[Guest Choken One]

I understand but you would rather Austin stumble into further depression and fall into the pitifalls of Alcoholism as long as you're entertained?

Choken I couldn't agree more. While I can understand it's his life and let him live it, there is a boundary between having a few beers and basically drowning your sorrows in alcohol. It's not heathly for him, and when everyone is going to decide to care, will be the day he drops dead from it. I mean think about it. He went through two wives, his career is gone, and he's back on tv being the GM for Raw. He went from being the hottest thing back in the late 90's to becoming some type of comedian on Raw. It's all fun and games, but you know this has be killing him inside watching all the other guys do what he loves and that's wrestling in the ring and giving his fans 100%.

[Guest evilhomer]

I drink a few beers just about every day too, it doesn't cause a problem. When you drink a few dozen every day, that's a problem.

 

Let the man do what he wants as long as it doesn't hurt the show, and it's not.

So as long as he's on your tv entertaining you and not being a detriment to the show, it's fine that he's succumbing to alcoholism and going down a road that will kill him. You see no need to step in and give him some help because the shows are good.

 

How about next year (or next month) when he's stumbling out piss ass drunk slurring through a promo that makes Jake Roberts' Heroes of Wrestling promo sound coherent by comparison? Then should something be done about his drinking?

I am going to repeat what I said before, because I guess you Johnson, didn't get the messege.

 

Yeah, then tell that to all of the other wrestlers who passed away from drug use because no one said anything. Brian Pillman, Elizabeth, Curt Henning, Louie Spicolli, and Davey Boy Smith, just to name a few.

 

No one said anything about their drug problems, and looked what happened to them. I hope that Austin stops his drinking so we don't hear about Austin dieing, hitting another women, getting in a car accident because he drank too much. I am glad the locker room is on his back, I wish they would of done the same with wrestlers who have died in the past because of drug use.

 

Just look at Arn Anderson, he is cleaning up his act. He knew he had a problem, and he is fixing it. Eddie Guerrero had a problem with drinking and with drugs. He went to rehab, and now is a better person. I am glad people either got on his back or he realized it himself, because it would of been a shame if he lost his job or died.

 

This isn't high school drama, this is real life. Don't wait until it affects his on air performance, that would be the worst thing to happen. Drinking IS NOT the way to get away from your problems, it only makes it worse. Trust me, I know from experience.

 

If Austin has a drinking problem, get him into rehab so we don't loose one of the greatest wrestlers of all time, and an icon to this business.

 

Live his life? Yes, we want him to do that, so he should clean up his act.

[Guest The Grand Pubah of 1620]

Once again guys you aren't understanding what I am saying. If he is an alcoholic he won't get help until he wants help, trust me, I know alot about alcoholism. But until that time all you can do is let the man live his life. If he wants to drink 12 a night then let him. If you pressure him to get help it''ll just push him further.

[Guest Choken One]

You should never work a Help Line

 

Sucidal Teen: The razor's burning me a fever red itch.

 

Johnson1620: Yeah...

 

ST: Can you help me man?

 

Johnson: Well, what's bothering ya?

 

ST: My family hates me, My Girlfriend dumped me and I been abused by my grandfather for 10 years...I cry at night. I am a drop out because i couldn't get the help I needed...

 

Johnson: Oh Yeah? So what ya going to do bout it?

 

ST: I've pretty much decided to kill myself...Yer my last resort...

 

Johnson: What? Man it's your life...I can't tell you what to do...It's up to you to decide...

 

ST: *SHOOTS SELF*

 

Johnson: Hello? Hello? Asshole.

[Guest The Grand Pubah of 1620]

All I am saying is that all you can do is offer help. If doesn't want it then leave him alone. When he does decide he needs help, he'll know what to do.

[Guest Bannable Offense]

I know you probably meant 12 beers a night as a hypothetical statement, but that extreme of alcoholism is pretty much self-destructive at that point and that's where people should step in out of sheer concern, whether the person's asking for it or not.

 

Alcoholism also has a way of affecting everyone around the alcoholic. There are some people you won't save, but you've gotta try and try hard, dammit, for the sake of that person and everyone around them.

[Guest Mole]

Once again guys you aren't understanding what I am saying. If he is an alcoholic he won't get help until he wants help, trust me, I know alot about alcoholism. But until that time all you can do is let the man live his life. If he wants to drink 12 a night then let him. If you pressure him to get help it''ll just push him further.

Offering to help sometimes isn't enough, you need to pressure him more to get help. His friends need to push, push, and PUSH for him to get some help.

 

I don't want to see Austin die, get arrested, loose his job, or just have an horrible life because he drinks too much. Like I said before, we have had too many deaths in the wrestlings business, Austin SHOULD not be next, nor should anyone else.

 

Eddie was pushed by his friends to get help, he did, and now he is better in life because of it. Why don't you understand that??

[Guest AndrewTS]

I refuse to comment because I don't know how much Austin is drinking.

 

If it's a normal amount that's fine. If it truly is a problem he should seek help or those around him should push for him to seek help.

Yeah, if he is drinking a little bit and it isn't affecting the way he lives, then he can drink all he wants.

 

But if he is drinking too much, then he needs help.

[Guest humongous2002]

Who gives a shit about Austin? The guy is a grown man if he thinks he needs help he'll get it, believe me if any Austin mark in here had the same problem Austin wouldn't give 2 shits about it.

[Guest FeArHaVoC]

I don't want to see Austin die, get arrested, loose his job, or just have an horrible life because he drinks too much. Like I said before, we have had too many deaths in the wrestlings business, Austin SHOULD not be next, nor should anyone else.

 

Eddie was pushed by his friends to get help, he did, and now he is better in life because of it. Why don't you understand that??

Wrong, Eddie helped himself after he got his D.W.I., lost his second chance at a WWE career, and almost lost his whole career in the business.

 

Also, don't compair Austin to Pillman, Davey Boy, Hennig, etc. Those guys were drug addicts. Until Austin starts acting like Arn or Hall, let him be. Like someone else said, we don't know how much he really is drinking.

 

Anyway, it's my day off. It's 12:16 in the afternoon, and I'm drinking a few Coors Original's and hanging out. Is that okay, or are you guys gonna call a fuckin' intervention on my ass?

[Guest wildpegasus]

Drink some orange juice instead. It's good for you.

[Guest FeArHaVoC]

A screwdriver is even better.

[King Cucaracha 0]

Wait a damn minute...

 

Austin is just now getting a divorce from his first wife?

 

The hell...

Err...wait, that can't be right. Cause if he's still married to his first wife, getting married to Debra would be illegal. He'd legally be married to two women. What's that called...bigamy? Hmm...

Oh okay, I wasn't sure about Eddie's case, my bad.

 

Yes, Davey, Pillman, and Curt were all drug addicts, but alcohol is a drug too. One's life can be ruined from drinking, and this could happen to Austin.

 

From what was said before, Austin seems to have a problem with his drinking. You want to stop the problem BEFORE he starts acting like Hall and Arn does, because that one time could get him in major trouble. He could do something that could hurt him or even die.

 

Anybody can have a few drinks, nothing is wrong with that. I get drunk, but I don't have a problem with it. If he does have a problem, he needs help before his life is ruined.

 

You can have a few beers, do whatever you want. TONS of people in this world can drink responsibly and not have it ruin their life. Some people can't because they have a disease, alcoholism. So if you want to drink a few beers, that is fine. Like I said a lot of people do it, but if it becomes a problem then you shouldn't drink.

 

Austin might have a problem and he needs help. Simple as that.

[Guest The Grand Pubah of 1620]

It seems as these rumors aren't exactly correct now. This came from WWE.com,

 

 

WWE.com has published an article on Steve Austin concerning his rights to drink beer now that his probation period is up. Below are some highlights and quotes from the article.

 

Stone Cold Steve Austin, you’ve probably noticed, is back to drinking beer on a regular basis.

 

Since his WWE return in February, he had been practicing prohibition, with the exception of one episode of RAW, on which he drank “near beer.” But since being named RAW co-general manager, he’s reverted back to imbibing the real stuff, and plenty of it.

 

“I got good news via a phone call that said I was able to drink beer now,” Austin told WWE.com. “And I leave it at that. I’m drinking beer whenever and where ever I feel like it now. All of my restrictions and stuff like that have been lifted.”

 

Austin had also not been drinking beer over the last several months because he was preparing for his in-ring comeback at WrestleMania XIX and he wanted to “avoid a beer gut.” These days, he’s not training for any matches. So the beer is back.

 

“I’m not in the ring every night of the week,” he said, adding with a chuckle, “and I’m working on being America’s favorite beer drinker!".

 

That sounds like an angle to me.

[Guest Choken One]

Yep...Bring Bradshaw as his drinking rival!

[Guest Special K]

A. To all the people who are boo-hooing their hearts out over Austin: HE BEAT THE SHIT OUT OF A WOMAN. Does that not matter to anyone anymore? To me it's one of the most cowardly viscious acts one can do. Are we so pussyized nowadays that we can't say beating women makes you a pretty big asshole? And the onus is on you to redeem yourself and not fuck up more?

 

B. To those who say alcoholism is a disease: Cancer is a disease. Parkinson's is a disease. Alcoholism's a really nasty habit. It may be a disease in that alcohol's physically addictive, and you should get help for it, but it's Austin's fault. Becoming an alcoholic is something where you have choice in the matter, not something foisted upon you by a vengeful God.

 

And having drank for 4 years in college, partying pretty heavily. (frat boy here) You can TELL the difference between a social drunk and a fuckin' alky. I'm sure there are PLENTY of guys who like to drink, get drunk 1-2 times a week in the WWE. Assuming everyone's getting their panties in a bunch over a coulpe beers is a bit silly.

 

And Coors sucks. Pabst Blue Ribbon Motherfucker! (Sorry, I like blue Velvet.)

some people some times would rather be entertained regardless as to what the entertainers does to themselves or others.

 

Austin can drink himself to a stupor and beat down debra like she was a rag doll for all they care, as long as he reports to Raw every week to wag his head throw out his middle finger and jabber on in time for the crowd's What chant.
