What is with these "athletes?"

OK let me get this straight. You get paid millions upon millions of dollars to play a sport. A game that you love. you have fans, people wearing your jersey everywhere, signing autographs. You are living every child's dream. And then, you go and shot yourself in the leg, or beat up your body guard, or get busted for drugs or whatever is is that these people do. I don't understand I really don't and I've given up trying to figure it out. Why are some athletes just straight up idiots. First with Pacman Jones. Can this guy please just leave. Just leave and never come back "Adam" as you would like to be called. Which by the way he wanted to use his real name because he thought "Pacman" was filled with a bad image, yea their you go good job. How many chances is this clown going to get? First off, to be honest he's really not even all that good so I don't know why teams are begging to get him. Secondly, he's had numerous off the field altercations with the law, and was thrown out for an entire year. You would think that would be enough to maybe get it through his head that I shouldn't screw up again. Yet goes about it and gets himself another suspension.

In recent news, Plaxico Burress has shot HIMSELF in the leg. I repeat, HIMSELFin the leg. This just made me laugh when I first heard it. Not only was he stupid enough to carry around a weapon into a night club, but to then have then gun go off in his pants is behind me. Why in the first place are you going places where you needed a loaded gun? Don't you have body guards and security surrounding you? I guess everyone needs to be a thug once in a while. He needed protection is what I'm sure hell testify in court and hell probably get off free of charges which is what usually happens to these athletes. Their not athletes at all, their above the law who have money, fame to their advantage.

I guess my point is why do players do these things. Just why? You have everything you want in life and have been blessed with unfair talent that Me and millions of other ordinary people wish we had. Why can't you just put the team before yourself for once and stop being selfish. You have a job, a carer in sports and I suggest to these athletes if they want to continue they better get their heads out of their ass.
