Without going into details here, growing up here in D.C. during the first Gibbs era Redskins players visited my old neighborhood to party quite frequently before and following games. It was no big deal. People weren't clamoring for autographs or anything. They would come and go, and kick ass on Sunday. We all know that Riggo and Jergy had a reputation for being out on the town getting trashed. So I don't get all the hate over some nachos at a Wizards game.

This isn't anything new for players being out and about when fans think they should be at home reading a nice novel drinking milk and cookies. It's not the going out partying or doing whatever that makes you less professional, it's doing it and not being able to ball on Sunday, that's what makes you less professional.

exactly my point, well said
