Which leads me to Braylon Edwards. It's oh so politically correct to treat West with kid gloves (give him space, blah, blah, blah) but why is Edwards viciously attacked? Who's to say Edwards doesn't suffer from a purported mental illness, too? I'm being very serious here. Shrinks have a mental illness diagnosis for everything these days, and narcissistic personality disorder is one of them. So if we're going to feel sorry for West, then let's also feel sorry for the countless extremely talented, albeit diva NFL wide receivers. They're all mentally ill. Give them space. Blah, blah, blah.
