Not really, because you or I can get caught with a little weed and it's no biggie. He gets caught with a little weed and he may lose his multi million dollar income. Big difference, and hence why he should be more careful than the average Joe.

It just gets under my skin how some people squander their opportunities. If someone paid me MILLIONS to play a GAME I was good at......damn straight I'd be nice and quiet and acting like a saint.....all the while collecting that big ole check. 10 yrs later, when I'm still young AND RICH.....I could sew all the damn wild oats I left behind. That's not too hard, is it?

Screw it.....let me sit on the damn bench for 10 seasons. Pay me HALF of the lowest paid player in the whole freaking league to SIT THERE. I'll be the best and most quiet bench warmer EVER. It's a cushy job, why screw it up??? That's my point.
