Week of Nov 10
As a concerned NFL Fan, I have been shocked recently at the appalling number of NFL personnel who have been arrested and charged with a crime.
ESPN tried an original series about this called Playmakers and Taglibue and the NFL threatend to yank ESPN's broadcast rights for Sunday Night Football if they refused to discontinue the series.
Wake up NFL--- Playmakers would not have to exist if there wasn't such a miserable track record for NFL personnel. I mean, they did not even need script writers for the show, just newspaper headlines.
In fairness, a study found that the crime rate of NFL players is actualy less than that of males in the general population. But that is not the point. The point is that NFL players are getting paid millions of dollars and are supposed to be looked up to as role models.

Former NFL defensive back Darryll Lewis was charged Wednesday with evading police, being under the influence/possession of crystal meth, resisting arrest, and possession of a smoking device
