Good times for Skins fans right there. Back when RG3 hadn't yet been painted as a coach killer and a diva and an egotistical boy emperor. Sad. Just sad. I hope like heck that Manziel and all the other young draftees don't fall prey to the same kind of media a**holes that RG3 was victim to. Manziel's reputation isn't as good as RG3's once was, but he's still a media darling...for now.

Manziel is a media darling but I dont think its because of good reasons like RG-3 was in the beginning. I think Manziel has an uphill climb ahead of him as far as his reputation goes. As far as Griffs rep going South, Im pretty sure most people realize it was Shannys fault for the most part. I think griff still has a pretty good rep.
