Message: [QUOTE="Morkel, post: 2828882, member: 8215"] It's true that Roberts is going to carry some baggage with him, and is in danger of slipping under certain circumstances. But after hearing about the Cultural Dinner, I hope he was involved, because if so it would have further cemented him in our group. It all seems to have come together after that last controversy. Maybe he was just expecting to have his contract ripped up, again, like all the other times when he was considered a liability, despite his skills. Someone mentioned that it's not like he's just a deadshit, that he does act remorseful and wants to work harder to overcome things, maybe Bennett backing him, when it really did look like the end of his Broncos career, was enough to give him the confidence in himself that he was actually capable of turning his life around. If Bennett encouraged his team-mated to rally behind him too, it would have been even better. Has he ever really had that sense of belonging? From the sounds of it he didn't have the best upbringing, and splitting up with his wife and being separated from his kid would have been further blows in what may be a pretty lonely life. Maybe he finally feels like he has a home with the Broncos. Who knows, I hope so, for his sake, not just because he's of value on the field, but he's another seemingly well-meaning human who just needs some quality support. [/QUOTE]
