Serioulsy i could care less about people "judging Rampage".....Do something like he did yesterday and you deserve to be judged.....I dont really care what his problem was everyone has problems and there is no excuse in my book to put many peoples lives at risk because of your own problems.....
Sure, everyone has problems. But, from the way this is playing out, this seems like it's a mental health issue. A serious one. And not everyone has serious mental health issues.
Does that excuse what he did? No. But you can't assume he just hopped in his truck and said to himself, "Hey, I'm gonna go out and act crazy today. Maybe I'll hit a car or two in the process...just for fun!"
The brain is a VERY complex tool. If it's f*cked with, sometimes you have no control over what you do.
So all of a sudden after loosing his title he has mental problems....Possible, but im not buying it....

How do you know he didn't have mental health problems PRIOR to losing his title?
There are different levels of depression, anxiety, cognitive disorders, personality disorders etc. An incident like this could make a bad situation worse. Maybe he needs his meds adjusted. It's hard to tell at this point. That's why, like I said, people should wait to hear the facts before they judge.

mental health problems or not, rampage needs to be locked up for a little while.

I don't know if that will be the best solution.
IF (and I am stressing the IF) it was the loss that got Rampage on this path, then maybe it would be best if he wasn't involved in fighting (and probably coaching too) any more.

I am finding it hard to believe some of the posts I am reading here like
"He is going through a tough time. And has nobody really to help him out, so this is his way of dealing with it" and
"He means well"
WTF!!! You are talking as if you know him personaly
He put others at huge risk. I hope he pays the price like any one of us would have to.
Shame on him

I still got love for the guy.
Not 1 person on this site, can say that havent screwed up at one time or another. He is going through a tough time. And has nobody really to help him out, so this is his way of dealing with it.
Give him time, and lets hope he gets the help he deserves.
I've screwed up plenty of times and I will plenty more. But never have I or will I lead police on a high speed chase through Los Angeles, so dont give me that mistake shit.
What is this "tough time" hes going through. He got his ass whooped by forrest now he dont know how to act. Hes still one of the biggest names in the sport, hundreds if not thousands of fighters would do anything to switch positions with him (pre arrest that is) Nobody to help? Dana bailed him out. His way of dealing with it is by performing a hit and run.
He does need some help. Why he "deserves" it i dont know.
That was probally the stupidest post i have ever read. I would much like to beat you with a shlacking stick.

45 mph isn't exactly a "high speed" chase unless you're 90 years old.
As for you saying you'll never do this and you'll never do that...blow a fuse upstairs and you'll have no idea you're even doing it.
His way of dealing with it is by performing a hit and run.
Speaking of stupid posts...

I'm injured...but let me figure out how much. Sounds like someone's waiting for a payday. Might sound a little harsh, but I don't like the sound of it.
Big mistake Rampage. Awesome fighter, and I'm a big fan, but you certainly can't go around breaking everyone elses stuff with complete disregard for their safety because you lost a fight.

I only charge $750/hour.
You better hope Playground members don't get picked for jury duty. As you can tell, people here are already calling for a prison sentence for the guy and they don't know jack about what's going on yet.

So, basically...you're saying this:
"You don't know the guy. But, I know the situation, so therefore, I'm right and you're wrong."
Please, give us some insight on what happened and why it happened.
