What is the deal w/ all of these athletes being constantly involved with domestic violence, rape, drugs, or even murder? The latest being Iverson..and before him, Jayson Williams, etc, etc..
I guess you could argue that it only reflects society, but I've read a few articles discussing how athletes are pampered and coddled from high school on, thus creating egomaniacal types who think they are above the law.
So I often wonder-are they like this before they become athletes, or does the fame, money, adulation create it? Of course, there are numerous examples of athletes who NEVER get involved in this.
I don't expect them to be perfect, but it does get extremely discouraging.
