Friends don't do that...back stabbers do. Fair enough?

I remember a story in the Bible, Paul and Silas were beaten and put in chains in Philippi...but an earthquake broke their shackles.
Not only did they not take it upon themselves to escape, but they refused to leave quietly after the leaders of Philippi realized they had beaten and jailed Roman citizens, which was unlawful.
Paul said " we were beaten and jailed publicly, and we will leave in the same manner." So the Philippi magistrates had to come down and make a public appeal to the missionaries to leave Philippi.
You don't go dumping on people publicly if you're not ready to be dealt with likewise. Drew could've been very public and probably humiliated Jenkins -- but that's the difference between a true leader (Drew), and a mere wannabe (Jenkins).
Just because you wear bow tie, grew a beard, have a bachelors degree, can match your shoes and socks, and have won a Super Bowl doesn't make you leader. You have to discipline yourself before you can attempt to discipline others.
