Manzel going down the wrong road?

Sex, drugs and... Cleveland Browns football?

Two photos of Johnny Manziel partying in Las Vegas over the weekend are drawing accusations of illegal drug use and questions of whether the former Heisman Trophy winner is dating a Playboy model.

One photo depicts the Browns quarterback in a night club bathroom rolling a $20 bill into a tube, which has many wondering whether he was using it to snort cocaine or some other illegal drug. No illegal drugs are seen in the picture.

"Rolled dollar bills are often used for snorting cocaine and cocaine is often snorted in the bathroom of a nightclub. (At least that's what they did in the '80s. I've heard.)," NBC's ProFootballTalk wrote.

The photo was emailed to the website Busted Coverage, and has since blown across the web.

Players are tested for banned recreational drugs only once per year, NBC reported.

Another photo, apparently taken the same night, shows Manziel hugging and kissing Playboy Social model Dallas Brooks (aka Dallas Nichole) in a bar in Las Vegas, where Manziel celebrated his Fourth of July Weekend.

The photos, posted to Brooks' Instagram account, have The Dallas Morning News wondering: "Is Johnny Manziel dating a Playboy model?"

Manziel "stayed in the Real World Suite at the Hard Rock Hotel & Casino with friends, partied at XS nightclub at Encore and dined at STK, the steakhouse at The Cosmopolitan," according to the Las Vegas Review-Journal.

Manziel partied with Justin Bieber in Beverly Hills last weekend until the cops were called.

Browns owner Jimmy Haslam reportedly told Manziel to "tone it down" two weeks ago.

Joe Namath survived, I guess JFF can too.

Sadly, it would follow.

As long as he plays football as hard as he parties, let him roll. Joe Willy eventually got it out of his system, and hopefully he will to.
If he does well on the field, all will be forgotten & forgiven. If he stinks up the field, he could be the 2nd Mother Teresa, and the fans will tear him a new one anyway.

No, rolling up a dollar bill in a bathroom. That could only mean one thing, a little nose candy, or booger candy.

But that was presented as one half of the shocking story..the other half being kissing a girl.

The kissing may be hard to deny..the dollar rolling can be easily explained away if there is no other evidence.

What would be a good explanation for rolling up a dollar bill in a night club bathroom? Not trying to be a smart-ass; I just can't think of one.

There is only one reason to roll up a dollar bill, I've been told.

I don't think Manziel has come close to earning the comparisons to Joe Namath yet either without playing one day of pro football yet. :?:

Au contraire.

Joe Namath's reputation preceded him before he took one snap for the Jets. I think the comparison (at this point) is quite valid.

Ok, I'm barely remember those days so thanks for the info. But I still don't like Manziel compared to a QB with a Superbowl Ring....

YES he is going the wrong way. Fame and or fortune will kill this guy sooner than later. Unless the NFL gets him first.

OCD..messes with whatever's in his hands.

There are no illegal drugs reported in this story, correct?

He's in no trouble here...but if I were him, I'd be keeping my nose clean, so to speak.

It's not fair to compare JFF to Namath based on Super Bowl wins. JFF got suspended at A&M, Namath got suspended at Alabama. JFF has a Heisman, Namath has a national championship. I'd say it's a dead heat heading to the NFL.

I think so. He is in Cleveland where they have nothing else to hope for but his antics.
He will provide those antics and then be done. A future 30 for 30 segment for sure.

I've been told it makes them easier to slide under a g-string. :roll:
