Are Fans and NFL teams too demanding of players?

[Pocket$ $traight]

Here is my position. No one has the right to tell anybody what to do with their free time. However, if you choose to do something completely idiotic, like riding a motorcycle without a helmet, you better be ready to accept the criticism if you screw up. I heard a point on the radio today that I think makes a lot of sense. As a QB of a football team you should be held to a higher standard because every guy on the team is depending on you. Not to mention the middle class fan who is giving up a significant amount of their disposable income every year to support you.

Big Ben has the right to do whatever he wants and he also deserves every negative comment. He let his fans, his team, the league and himself down.

You just said exactly what I've been thinking this whole time, and in much fewer words.
