Interesting that the touchdown dances, trouble with hookers in clubs, and various greed related activities weren't occuring then.
Who do you want your kids to look up to?
I still say ART MONK and Darrel Green....who were still "old school" in the 80s
Early money is corrupting many of our young athletes.
(Not to mention those smarmy agents)

What are you talking about. Griggo admitted to getting drunk while playing football. I heard of a QB that the Dline joked always smelled like booze. If you think those guys did not hang out in strip clubs your crazy. Its just now sports are a bigger deal and you have so much media they need to find things to report about so now they follow players personal life off the field. S for if they are paid too much I guess you could say some are some are not. What gets me is these guys who come out of college and have never played one down in the NFL get paid these millions without ever proven they can play in the NFL. Allot of them fail and make enough money to never work another day in their life. People like Moss have proven their worth and get paid because of it.
