Question for Football Fans?

I was just wondering how many you have ever been in trouble? Because all I hear is this complaining about NFL Players. Green Bay fans Moon you when they beat you in Green Bay. The Eagles fans act like they all come from a crazy house and that is just a little bit of all the fan. So what I am asking is why do you expect so mush from the players when most you guy get DUI and other charges leaving the games. In college boaster give money to college kids, then turn around tell on the kids. It's like the fans are never at fault for there actions. Even when that NBA stuff happen nobody question the fans. If any one is at work and someone throw a water bottle down and hit you with it you are going to beat them down, so why is it wrong just because I play Sports

    Not all pro athletes act wrong and all fans don't act wrong.

    Fans and players should both behave , the main difference is that players and coaches are usually expected to be good role models and act properly. That is why when a player gets in trouble for any reason it is big news. Players are celebrities, fans are not, this does not mean all fans should just go crazy. I think both players and fans should be on good behavior to a certain extent. I have never been a real jerky player, but I have been an obnoxious fan.

    I liken it to the president of the USA. If the guy is the leader of the free world, he should have the moral compass to not cheat on his wife. Same thing for athletes. These guys are paid millions of dollars, not because they are good at a game, but because people are fans of them. I don't want to root for a guy that beats his wife and shoots up a strip club. I have been arrested a couple times, the worst for punching out a bar window. It's not something I am proud of.

    I can forgive a DUI here or there, or a fight, but when their posse is shooting up a strip club, or they are arrested for gun charges again and again, I really don't want them on my team.

    As for fans, absolutely nothing bothers me more in sports than when OSU fans act like a fool. I enjoy watching games with people that are fans of the team we are playing, because I enjoy their perspective.

    I think the thing that's troubling, is these guys make tons of money, yet, they are still doing stupid things. a normal guy may drive home from the bar because he can't afford a cab, but a superstar can rent a limo and not feel a pinch. Maurice Clarrett, is the perfect example of a total idiot who threw away a golden oppurtunity. the last we heard from his is he was carrying guns around and he robbed some dude in columbus and stole nothing but a cell phone, this is the guy as a freshman had the support of the entire buckeye nation and a national championship (and played a major role in getting it)

    its a shame when you give these guys so much and they throw it away. I know I wouldn't

    they chose to live and work in front of every one.there for held to higher standards.most are fans to kids there actions on or off the field can change a kids life in just one moment. the average Joe smoe. going to work every day just to pay there TV bill and enjoy a few beers after work. gets a DUI he goes strait to jail. while the rich players pretty much get off. but pay threw suspension and slammed the press. when you live in the eye of the public your life is a bit different.

    properly American soccer gamers might fairly beat the crap out of soccer gamers. I recommend Adrian Peterson vs Leo Messi in a combat i recommend Messi great and all yet Peterson is merely a monster and can tear Messi in a million/2. I recommend Peterson is robust, swifter, and perchance much greater agile than Messi. Fan vs Fan. the only clarification why soccer followers might win is by using the fact they have far greater people. a million on a million i think of american soccer followers might win.
