YES!! He does have some form of an addiction. It's not a case of not being able to control himself of being 'weak'. He must have some sort of underlying issues which make him result to this...Maybe playing for cronulla?? [eusa_doh[/quote:1ktjdtmk] Sure, they may have some sort of dependence on these substances, but I just refuse to cut them any sort of slack for it. Besides, it's not like Seymour has been drinking since he was a baby and has needed alcohol to survive his whole life. Nobody ever forced him to drink alcohol, just as most alchos/gambling addicts/dopers weren't forced to take said substance etc. (I will except prescription drug addictions) For me, mentioning the term addiction is, even if only in a small way, an attempt to diminish the level of personal responsibility involved, which is why I believe it is a cop out.
