Davone Bess’ Very Bad Week Keeps Getting Worse

Someone’s gone bananas…and his name is Davone Bess.

In case you haven’t heard, Cleveland Browns wide receiver Davone Bess has had a pretty bad week. What started as a case of standard athlete bad judgement with a questionable Instagram photo has quickly devolved into a full-blown meltdown.

This week has been a bad one for Bess, but the mess actually started a few days before Christmas when he posted the first, in what may be a very long line, of photos of him smoking (or just hanging out with) weed.

At the time he was taking some time off for “personal reasons,” which actually makes even more sense now. Turns out that was anything but an isolated incident; more like the opening act to a much bigger and more disturbing show.

Bess’ very bad week began on Thursday at exactly 4:20 a.m., the timing not accidental, when he tweeted out another photo bragging about his glorious weed. This time he included a pile of weed and a baggy of weed, in addition to the blunt he was smoking.

The next day the Browns announced they were investigating the incident. So, naturally, Bess decided the best way to make himself look employable was to get arrested at the Fort Lauderdale International Airport.

According to the TSA officer’s report, Bess was “dancing and singing, with his pants repeatedly falling down.” He was approached by the officer and immediately took off his shirt and took a “fighting stance” toward him.

After the arrest the Miami Herald reported that Bess; family had him committed against his will in March 2013. He hadn’t slept for three days at the time and it took six deputies to restrain him. Bess was held for observation before being released.

Unfortunately he wasn’t held long after his arrest in Florida, Bess quickly posted the $100 bond and was again set free. Which left him some free time on Saturday to up the ante on his latest streak of crazy.

Sorry about this.

Bess took a break from posting photos of drugs on Instagram to post naked photos instead. Ya know…because this way…everybody wins? Actually no. We’re all still losing here, particularly Bess, who is likely very close to being out of a job.

Assuming he still has one—anything but a certainty. What is certain is Bess needs help, because this has disaster written all over it.
