When will Professional athletes learn to live like millionaires? Sure they buy big houses, big cars, and big jerrerry, but when it comes to common sense, they live like bums. Cleveland wide receiver Donte Stallworth proved this in March when he drove his own car drunk home from a nightclub and killed a pedestrian. A quote from the Miami Herald makes it very hard to have any sympathy...
"Miami Beach police said Stallworth, 28, was driving his Bentley drunk on March 14 when he hit and killed a pedestrian crossing the road on the McArthur Causeway. Stallworth, who had been partying at a posh Miami Beach nightclub, is charged with DUI manslaughter."
I like to think that any of us that came upon millions of doll-hairs would have the sense to take a limo to a South Beach hot spot. At least hire a driver for fuck's sake! I think the NFL should hire someone to teach these guys to live smarter with their money so that when temptation presents itself they make the right decision. Oh wait, they already do! I guess we should just face the facts that shit like this could happen to anyone.

I just noticed I double pasted that quote. Proofreading is a lost art.
