Hi guys, I'm fairly new to the site. To Mattyk72's point, the NFL is a cross-section of society as a whole, and there are good and bad people at every level. My only issue is whether you are hurting one at a bar or thousands at a major corporation or uncovering the indentity of a CIA opperative - one hurt is one too many. I think our moral judgements as a country are more of a cultural phenomenon than anything else. It's just amplified when we see celebrities or national figures in the midst of it. It's certainly possible that fame and money doesn't really change a person....it simply makes them more of what they already are.

But as far as the Pac-Man incident goes, how interesting would this story have been had he been available and drafted by the Redskins along with what's going on with ST! The press would have had a field day!
