And I see he abused the infant as well.

Wife left him with the kid, so I'm glad to see that.

I really think there's a huge component of steroid abuse in pro sports as well as in police departments.

Steroids for sure. But, I also think there is a lot of building up of these guys' egos since as soon as they show talent.

Get in trouble in junior high or high school? No worries.

It just keeps growing. They think they are gods.

And sadly, many football fans feel that way about them.
