[QUOTE="Pokerbrat2000, post: 893911, member: 7261"] Jordan? Honestly, I can see where stepping into the NFL could be a failure for a lot of guys and not due to their talent but more due to the massive change in lifestyle. Many top College athletes are pampered and spoiled by the University where they live and play. They are surrounded by a massive support system and one that forgives mistakes. Then they get a HUGE payday, go from being top dog to low man on the totem pole and are officially adults in an unfamiliar City and on their own. Quite the cultural shock all at once for anyone really. So here you have someone who suddenly has a windfall of money, maybe even enough to retire on and has to make adult decisions to boot. I can see where a guy could get a bit "fat and lazy" or even throw the term "overwhelmed" in there. [/QUOTE]
