Seriously. This is the SON of an NFL coach. Not the coach. His son. Yeah, is his son in some serious trouble? Of course. But this has nothing to do with sports, whatsoever. Andy Reid is not a movie star or an actor, but ESPN and other media is turning his family problems into a media soap opera, then tying it into sports by asking lines like "how do the players feel about this" and "will emotions get in the way of coaching?". Andy has some messed up children, but he has normal ones too. Heck, the "kid" is 25! Andy isn't making decisions for him anymore. And EVEN if he was, does it REALLY matter? The Eagles pay him to coach, he's done very well at that (go ahead, spam about how he sucks, he is a good coach), and his personal life carries NO weight, whatsoever, on his coaching ability. I feel sorry for him that this difficult time for his family is being shown to the world, and that his character is being questioned by random people who saw the phrase "Reid arrested" on a Sportscenter column and know nothing about the situation.
