Throwball Heroes_118522 Moderator Membership: Starter Joined: June 10 Total Posts: 14465 Favorite Team: Offline	Post Date: 06/28/13 05:43 I am getting sick and tired of these so-called professionals and their conduct, either on or off the field. More so, off the field when it deals with law enforcement intevention. 27 players have been arrested since the Super Bowl, most recently the bleep from New England for 1, 2 maybe 3 murders. These cases have to give the NFL a black eye, but more importantly why don't players ever learn? James Brown of CBS said, "Roger Goodell has been very resolutely focused on cleaning up the league." If that is the case, then he needs to come down much harder on players who do stupid sh*t and end up in trouble with the law. I don't see the NFL getting any better when it comes to player conduct and even though those 27 are "less than 1%" it still a black cloud over the NFL. ---- Stephen http://www.the6thfloor.com/category/fantasy-football-2/ "Bringing confusion and contradiction to YOUR post!"

I think there is something in the scouting manual that thugs are the best value players. It is one thing to do stupid sh*t(Burress) but another to leave your house with intention to kill! Funny thing is I thought Hernandez had it together? Went to work, played football on Sundays and stayed out of the limelight. Guess he was just trying to cover up his other activities! ---- Mayan Calendar's final FFS Challenge Winner?

I really don't think this is any greater than what it historically has been, it's just that with the NFL having become a completely 24/7 year round attention grabber these transgressions from players are more publicized. ---- On any given Sunday any fantasy team can beat another, only to still lose Monday night.

Maybe a better background check needs to happy prior to draft day, but Goddell needs to address this unprofessionalism in the NFL. ---- Stephen http://www.the6thfloor.com/category/fantasy-football-2/ "Bringing confusion and contradiction to YOUR post!"

The unversities prop the stars up and rally around the player, tolerating anything he does as long as he plays football for them and makes the university money. Just like the average person has to be held accountable for their own actions, the athlete's do too. They need to become aware of the perils of holding onto a dubious past when the future provides them with fortune. ---- On any given Sunday any fantasy team can beat another, only to still lose Monday night.
