Its not like these guys majored in accounting they majored in football thats how they have been getting by since probably middle school.
These aren't excuses.
You dont have to have sympathy you just need to know the truth about a lot of these players situations. You guys act as if these guys were some Harvard graduates when most of these dudes probablly didnt even score over 1000 on the SAT. Look where most of these guys are from. How can you expect them to be fiscally responsible. This news isnt shocking at all.

You don't need to be a Harvard graduate, break 1000+ on the SAT, or be from the suburbs to be financially responsible. The fact that you are accepting their financial troubles as nothing more than these men being products of their environment is sad. This is a mindset that needs to change IMO. I'm not blaming you because I'm sure that there are plenty of folks who share the same POV that you have. However, I think the bar needs to be raised higher as far as the expectations we have for these guys.
