I don't know the guy or any of them personally but if I was going by your reasoning, then I would want to think aside from the obvious - all of them give jobs to their kids, that we would be giving our kids jobs close to us to try and keep track of what they're doing and keep them on the straight and narrow. But like all of us know, there is only so much watching we can do and who wants to cut their kids off.Ii believe he was selling juice along with heroin and was addicted to heroin. And just my opinion, I doubt that reed has no clue that his linebackers Coach, who was his son, an alcoholic, and had past DUI was boozing at work. Possible but unlikely. Not blaming Andy but I don't think either of those kids had the credentials to hold their position and I question why he would allow them on his staff knowing their character which was public knowledge. He gets results as a coach and may be a nice and likeable guy... perhaps how he escaped criticism. Imagine if belicheck son or say a coach on the hot seat like Brandon Staley did the same.
You hope they don't hurt anyone or themselves but again at the end of the day someone can look you right in the eye and tell you they're fine and look fine...And then go home and stick a needle in their veins. Someone can be clean for years and then fall off the wagon.
In these cases if you want to blame the parent because he was the boss, then you have to blame those organizations too, because if Reid knew, the entire team, staff down knew.
