It seems my title for the last entry “Law firm of Hill, Hill and Greene” was a little prophetic. Apparently Hakim Hill was sent home by the Argos in 2005 because of the numerous alcohol related charges against Hill. He says he has not had a drink since September ’05, I hope that is true. The article from the Leader-Post reminds the readers that Tillman / Austin were going to run a clean organization, to which Tillman responds that after speaking to individuals who know him and his circumstances all say he is a good kid. So this will be a bit of a gamble for Tillman, I think more on the public relations side then the football side. Unfortunately there are many issues that come from being a professional athlete and many young men are not equipped to deal with them properly, hopefully Hill is now equipped and he can move on in football or in life.
