It is refreshing to see this in the news rather than DUIs and bar fights.

DEAD! Posted August 5, 2011 Share Posted August 5, 2011 We all know that it's the NBA players that are thugs... I saw, I came, I left. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brave-Bird 08 Posted August 5, 2011 Share Posted August 5, 2011 False, DEADThe NBA does a great job with making sure their players are professionals. The NFL as well. This topic is widely underrated and not publicized, and most people get the perception that pro sports is full of thugs, but remember how players are evaluated for personality as well when they enter professional leagues.At least, with my Falcons and Hawks I know the wide majority of players are great in the community and very mature.

Cosmic Posted August 5, 2011 Share Posted August 5, 2011 Sure they look at personality when they draft/sign guys, but if you can really play, they'll find a spot for you. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bHe1AT-rk50 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Breakwood Posted August 6, 2011 Share Posted August 6, 2011 If people think the NFL is full of thugs, you need to watch the CFL. I swear half the players up here are only here cause they have too much attitude for the NFL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
