What about the image you would have on the younger fans, how would you impress them with your skills on the field, but FAIL as a decent person on the outside of that game. So you can have NO MORALS as long as you produce. Just ask Michael Jordan, Derek Jeter, Cal Ripken Jr., just to name a few about what their public image means to the sport.
Correct, i totally agree with frosty... just because hes in the spotlight 24/7 doesnt make him a person... MJ supposedly touched kids, and freddy mercury got aids, people do that **** all the time, but their legacies are now tarnished even though they are 2 of the best performers of all time
