    Haha right on. Ahh the misconceptions of the sober. It's not their fault, and truely they're better for it. But on topics like this, it should be left to the experts.

      Really it depends on your personality. Certain people have addictive personalities. You can go out drinking every weekend and not become an alcoholic. Use and addiction are not always the same thing. If Miguel is out partying and has a sniff here or there, it is a lot different then if he wakes up in the morning and takes a Scarface white line to the dome. JMO

        That's exactly the point, the guy doesn't do anything out of the ordinary. He's a normal person who happens to be a millionare and have the spotlight on him when he does something wrong. He likes to party, sniff a little here and there but it's nothing close to being out of control. To get to where Miguel is takes a lot of discipline and sacrifice. He just likes to blow off some steam and deservedly so.

          Real life is nothing like commercials, kid. You would be surprise at how many important people like to put stuff up their nose.

              Has he ever done otherwise. A lot of people are putting too much stock into what happened yesterday, this is nothing. Anyone of us would have done the same thing if not worse. Cotto will be fine, this is a blessing in disguise.

                This will sound small-minded, but I always wonder when guys (grown-ass men with kids) start getting tattoos like that.

                But yes. I heard from other guys in San Juan with manicured eyebrows that Migs likes to party.

                  There is an astounding double-standard at play here.

                      And what would that double standard be?
