I really don't have a problem with what the sports agent did. He thought he was helping a fellow human being who would in turn establish a professional relationship based on mutual interest and trust. Yes, he broke an NCAA rule but did not do anything terribly immoral.

The guy is an immoral scum bag that knew exactly what he was doing, and chose to make it a career. He is one of life's bad men.

I respect your opinion. This is not a Job I would choose for myself or my children.

However, my point is that the current state of Professional Athletics in this country is disturbing. I don't think it is the entirely the fault of the Agents , NCAA, Players Union or the Professional Leagues and colleges. It is the athlete him/her self who has to examine themselves and be held accountable for what they do with their life.

Professional Athletes have become part of an entitlement class along with Government Employees, Professional Politicians and Entertainers.

If they weren't playing games for pay they would be breaking into our houses!
