He looked good repeling out of the helicopter, but tough to watch him after that. Hope he perseveres

Amazing to see him one on one with the DS's. Admits to throwing away his dream and giving up on himself. Said there was a time where he wanted to end his life and now he wants to turn that around. I know it's reality tv but hopefully he gets a redemption arc

He was in Vegas looking at 6 figure watches and gambling per his IG the other day.
Not saying it means anything on its own, but I'm with his history, it brought back the memories of past bad decisions for me.

Some people will say that the network got exactly what they wanted out of his involvement.

I think JFF has always had a touch of ODD (opposition defiance disorder). He really hates being ordered around. At no time was this a challenge for Manziel to be successful. He might play hard for a team he trusts and people he loves but not for an arbitrarily assembled team of celebrity misfits. Plus, he gives up when hard work is required...especially hard mental work.

Oh no, are you saying that thing with transvestite cheerleaders is gay also?!

Well, I started this thread - always rooting for Johnny's success liek before - so here's how it played out.
In episode two of Special Forces: World's Toughest Test, Johnny Manziel was not kicked off the show, but voluntarily withdrew from the competition. This occurred after a heated confrontation with the directing staff (DS) during a difficult challenge involving being submerged underwater in a simulated drowning scenario.
Here is a breakdown of what happened:
Failed underwater challenge: The recruits were required to escape from a submerged plane fuselage while blindfolded. Manziel panicked during the physically and psychologically grueling task, repeatedly failing to free himself from the sinking fuselage.
Confrontation with the DS: After the challenge, DS staff member Mark "Billy" Billingham questioned Manziel's commitment and pointed out his failure to help fellow recruits. The staff member criticized Manziel for only caring about himself and not having the mentality needed for Special Forces.
Choosing to withdraw: Following the intense verbal confrontation, Manziel opted to leave the show. He explained that his time on the course helped him realize he needed to prioritize his relationships with his family and that the stress of the process was not for him. He told the staff, "I think there's a different fight for me to be fighting. I'm choosing to fight it with my family and my loved ones, not with this".

So he quit again. "Need to prioritize my family" blah, blah, blah.
Quote:
Johnny Manziel recalled begging, crying and pleading during his split from his ex-wife Bre Tiesi in the new season (8) of "Selling Sunset" on Netflix, which premiered Friday.
The exes had a heart-to-heart in episode six while Tiesi who's a cast member on the show and a real estate agent at the Oppenheim Group was helping Manziel find a home to buy in Los Angeles.
. . .
They split in March 2019 after one year of marriage, and reports at the time claimed that the former Browns quarterback had cheated on Tiesi.
"In the long run of things, I still won," Manziel said before Tiesi laughed. "Would you call it a loss?"
She replied, "Yeah, because you loss me, it's a loss."
. . .
"I learned a lot about what I handled wrong. I was a lost, depressed kid running around the Hollywood Hills getting drunk every night and living in a nightclub. And a lot of time behind your back probably as well."
That's when Tiesi chimed in.
"Oh you spent a lot of time with someone else on their back, but yes it's fine. Still love ya," she said.
"I still feel bad to this day treating you like that," Manziel said.
. . .
"Do you like my blonde [hair]? I wore it just for you because I know you love blondes so much. Do you think it'll help my sale today?" she said when they first met at the home.
Manziel is currently dating model Josie Canseco, who has blonde hair.
