This video of the Hoff (pictured above with his wife) is so upsetting. He's all drunky and incoherent and being taped by his sixteen-year-old daughter, Taylor. He's so wasted he can't even eat a hamburger. Taylor is heard begging him to stop drinking. Dave's rep says he asked his kid to tape him so he could get a good idea of how he acts while he's inebriated. Last night, per Extra, Hoff gave this statement: "I am a recovering alcoholic. Despite that I have been going through a painful divorce and I have recently been separated from my children due to my work. I have been successfully dealing with my issue. Unfortunately … I did have a brief relapse, but part of recovery is relapse. Because of my honest and positive relationship with my children, who were concerned for my well-being, there was a tape made when I had a relapse to show me what I was like. I have seen the tape. … I have learned from [the tape], and I am back on my game." Just sad.
