After leaving the Skins for more money (which is perfectly acceptable, after all it is a business), he should have been on his knees thanking the Redskins for giving him his career, and harboring no ill will. But instead, he acted like a spoiled crybaby.

That being said, the guy's a 30 year old, millionaire professional athlete. Are we honestly going to waste time with inflated indignancy over a fun time he was having in a strip club? C'mon, that's ridiculous.

When he was drafted and played for the Skins his first 2 years I loved the guy. Then he started hearing how "smart" he was, became a free agent and his head swelled up, moved to NY and his head went from "swollen" to "stupid" and there you have it. It's amazing what money will do to a person's ego. Screw him!!!

I hope his wife takes all his money!!
