What’s your analogy?
To me, it’s like having a wife who’s a drunk that can look ok at times and if you hide her without getting her real help, people don’t notice her drinking problem as much but it’s ultimately going to rear it’s ugly head. Last season she fell on her face numerous times but looked great that one night out against UNC. After several more faceplant blackouts, she fortunately didn’t get to go out on a few of the last remaining big nights (Covid cancellations), so people kind of forgot about her.
Nobody saw her in the off-season, but she apparently stayed off the sauce and did a few things to improve her personal health. She looked pretty good somehow her first night out this year, but then last Saturday when we thought she was recovering, she had one too many and it was all over as she had her worst night ever. She needs real help from the bottom up and for the masking of the issue to be stopped. I’m not sure she’s surrounding herself with the right people, so some or all of those folks may need to change. We all know her potential deep down, but let’s get her the real help she needs so she can realize the potential instead of kicking the can down the road thinking things are going to just magically change by doing the same thing over and over again in the same vicious cycle.
