I agree, I really should stay away from 'stories' in the daily fail M
.
And yes, he can't help his condition (swearing etc) but is being aggressive towards a fellow player and spitting at the manager part of his condition? Hmmm
Apparently, he had to double his medication so that would suggest he wasn't taking enough to control his tics etc.
I think some folk with this disorder are comedy genius's, I'm not taking the urine I think that if a bit of humour brings attention,raises awareness to Tourettes Syndrome then it's not all bad, at least it's getting the message out there.
I'd post some clips but it's a family forum (allegedly).
