Ohio knew he was troubled.<BR/><BR/>b. He mad TONS of money for them. And as a result they SHOULD be obligated to ensure that their players are healthy stable and productive.<BR/><BR/>This is a PRIME EXAMPLE OF UNJUST ENRICHMENT.<BR/><BR/>c. This kid is hood. Which is FINE.<BR/>However, in accepting him, they had an DUTY and obligation to ensure that he was stable and taken care of.<BR/>Not just to profit from his presence on their team.<BR/><BR/>d. The broncos KNEW HE WAS TROUBLED.<BR/>THEY ARE NOT ABSOLVED from their responsibility.<BR/>Yes he signed the contract.<BR/>He was financially strapped, and did not receive, in my opinion, the most PRUDENT ADVICE FROM HIS agent.<BR/><BR/>e. Clarett, the Broncos, the agents, and Ohio are ALL CONTRIBUTED TO THIS.M.Dot.https://www.blogger.com/profile/05113752779973426025noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14243811.post-1155514531359842372006-08-13T20:15:00.000-04:002006-08-13T20:15:00.000-04:00@ Jase,I did not go to the party.

Clarret is not only a microcosm of today's black youth, but a painful reminder that the hopes and dreams of (a good percentage) of our youth are no longer rooted in social/politcal change and upheaval, but comfort and riches from insitutuions.jpollardhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06123457281764922599noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14243811.post-1155404166872134322006-08-12T13:36:00.000-04:002006-08-12T13:36:00.000-04:00It's very saddening to see what happened To Clarre...It's very saddening to see what happened To Clarret. Is Clarret a microcosm of today's black youth? Tragically, yes.
