Whoever was at fault in an incident that ended with Manziel’s entourage beating up a fan, one thing is clear: this is not the type of story that anybody wants to see linger except perhaps the alleged victim.

In attempting to clear things up on Friday, Manziel spoke out and said that fan Chris Gonos was drunk and aggressive when he approached him in a hotel lobby. If that was the case, one can certainly wonder if Gonos’s claim that he just “wanted to hug Manziel” was disingenuous.
