Trust me I wouldn't post things like that about a champion if they weren't true. Many people in the world continue to love and adore the famous even after they've done some seriously bad things. My affection is checked at the door - either someone is a good person or they aren't. Sadly from all reports it sounds like he is headed down the wrong road and has been for a couple years at least. While Freddie has some serious issues going on, it doesn't appear that he's tried to make anything right. If he does in the future I'll be the first to praise him for doing the right thing. I hope he gets help for his problems and finds religion, but it's got to be very tempting for a famous person to just take the money and run once their career is over and they don't have any easy way to fix their reputation.
