Just one more reason why I refuse to waste my time or money watching overpaid ignorant douchebags in the NFL or NBA

as you see fit...however, the VAST majority of these sports figures are the epitome of what we expect of people who seek to achieve success...unrelenting hard work, sacrifice that neither you nor I would even consider, talent beyond all belief, and for the most part are responsible, sucessful family men/women....don't judge hundreds by the actions of a VERY few....

We are all entitled to our opinion, but...
It all depends on your definition of VAST...

.. . but for me, even a large minority, say 40% is embarrassing and disgraceful, and causes me to suspect your judgment.

I disagree. I spent 4 years working for the Dallas Cowboys. And while you are correct that professional athletes are talented and work hard, most of the players I met in that time were arrogant, selfish, petty and childish (and usually ended up being bankrupt within a couple of years after retiring).
