And that right there is the problem. They're not role models they're people, real human beings that sometimes make bad choices. We put these guys up on a pedestal and when we find out they're humans with flaws just like the rest of us we tear them down and call them bums. I don't put them on pedestals so I accept there mistakes and move on.
With the amount of money in professional sports now a days and the pressure they're under how can they not be tempted. Prolong my career a little and I can make another 3 million, they think.
Don't give me the old days crap either, guys did the same things back then it just wasn't reported. Maybe not steroids per sa, but they had other temptations.

At least til the next drug test. Sorry how many chances are they going to give this REJECT from the Projects. He should be doing time like Vick also instead they keep giving him chance after chance. Here is a way to stop illegal drugs in sports you get caught doing them immeadiate LIFETIME BAN for any Performance enhancing and especially the Illegal ones like WEED and Coccanie. Get a DUI 2 year ban second one gone for LIFE no chance to appeal it no chance to coach NOTHING. Kids look up to you as a role model and HERO start acting like one.
