The prob in professional sports as a whole, IMO, is the fact that most of these people suddenly come into an exorborant amount of money so fast and dont quite know how to handle that kind of freedom...

In any other profession financial success comes at a much slower pace and therefore comes the learned responsibilty of how to handle alot of money

Not to mention that the media has its magnifying glass on every lil detail of your life as a pro....Steve McNair's consentual DUI was total bullsh*t for example...Mike Vick's dog thing is borderline BS too (not cuz im for dog figthing rings or anything...but its just an indirect link to Vick)

Im not trying to make excuses as Pacman and others in similar situations need action to be taken against....repeat offenders especailly....

But after all is said and done, suffering from the scrutiny of the media and public eye is a small price to pay for the type of money these guys make
