Message: [QUOTE="Huge, post: 2188831, member: 1992"] Some of what you have written is correct but you seem to have drawn a very strange conclusion from the paragraph highlighted !!!...I'll re-arrange it into a simpler form....there is no connection between footballing ability and capacity to make wise decisions....in other words, stop expecting a footballer to have high standards simply because they possess more footballing ability than other players !!! Because a player is talented and highly paid DOES NOT mean he is any better equipped to handle life and its temptations , he is no better qualified than a nuffy touch player or snooker champ !! With regard to the court of public opinion let me say this...never wasbeen journos and commentators shape the direction of the outrage...their feigned indignation influences the weak-minded in much the same way as the defenders of your own good self...you know how they jump up and down whenever they feel you're being threatened or abused and they rush to your defence or when they are not capable of independent thought they simply wait to see how you respond and then fall in line with your view. Weak-minded people are influenced by those people who are either paid to have an opinion or those who occupy a position respected by the fan. There is nothing wrong with drinking until death if that's a persons desire...it's part of our rights to determine our own fate. I also note Coxy that you make no mention of the rest of the public ,guilty, on the same day,of the same offence and treated totally differently. You also do not seem to acknowledge the unfairness of a triple layer of punishment....strangely you expect newbies (and that is what anyone under 30 is ) to behave as a grown-up would !!!!! You expect standards of behaviour from a child that you don't expect of a high court judge !!! Why??.........because the boys paid well and can play Rugby League !! [/QUOTE]
