I think the best point you have made against Tank Matty is that he doesn't get it, owning guns especially for a high profile athlete who makes a lot of money is no big deal IMO, I don't believe he used them in a harmful way at any time. Speeding? Come on we all do it. Who knows exactly what happened with the cop and the limo, I think they dropped the charges which tells me the cops may have been out of line as well. I don't believe the Bears cut him for that alone, that could happen to a lot of people under the right circumstances, I believe the Bears let him go because they see in this guy more trouble ahead, in other words his problems so far may not be that bad, but thier feeling is it's only a matter of time and cut bait with him, we don't need what may, or may not come along with this guy.
Further more, if no one picks him up that will send a very clear message to all players, if the commish comes down on you we are all going to back him up. If a couple of high profile players lose thier careers because of off the field problems you can bet the rest will start cleaning up thier acts!
