“That’s where the solution has to start. Colleges and the NFL might also consider not having players whose behavior record would otherwise eliminate those players from consideration for college acceptance or a job.”

Football is so popular they will not do that. Although MLB has its share of jerks, MLB probably actually benefits from the minor leagues and college baseball being not a fraction as popular in that very specific way, much easier to weed out the talented jerkwads before they make the big show. Also much easier to bench players for jerkitude on and off field when they play so many games.

Making $150 dollars a week, with the housing situation of a Guatemalan day laborer, in the NY-Penn League will humble you real fast.
