Umm, no. It was precisely responsive.

You appear to looking for the racist boogeyman under the bed.

The reality is that NFL players get into a lot of dumb shit. They also have a lot of hangers on. Hangers on that are often a big part of why they are broke as a joke 2 years removed from football.

That is the reality.

Cris Carter spoke to those players. Black, White, Pacific Islander and the random Hispanic guys that play O Line for the Broncos.

The fact is that a) 70% of the players in the NFL are black and b) the player that was spoken to that 'outed' him was white.

Not exactly. He gave enough clues for someone to find the video on the NFL website. I guess they don't look at those things.

He is scheduled to speak Friday. Wednesday is O.J. Simpson, and Thursday is Sam Hurd.

The reality is that some do while most do not. The perception is that all do.

Most of the players in the NFL have neither the money nor shelf life to maintain a crew. Further, for every problem player there are several other players who lead very hum drum existences. We see that anecdotally on a show like Hard Knocks.

For those that don't know, I'm the "Fall guy" in Good Dolphin's crew. Boy, the shit I've gotten him out of. One day I'll tell those stories. I've spent 2 years in the joint to protect his image.

It's not all players, but it's enough that many experts come in to speak to players about keeping their noses clean, being smart with their money, staying 'out da club' etc. Guys like Philip Buchanon, Troy Vincent and others (can't recall who, but they had a few on the 30 for 30 'Broke) coach rookies on doing shit the right way to not end up broke.

I'm sure the topics on their power point agenda include: 1. Stay Away From The Hootchies. 2. Lose The Crew. 3. Hire A Proper Money Guy (Not Your Cousin) and so one...

The overwhelming majority of ex-NFL athletes (most of whom are black) are dead broke within 2 years of being out of the NFL. Offering advice on how to avoid that is a good thing.
