Pro athletes could be found sleeping on a giant pile of cocaine and not get arrested. Or arrested but given house arrest. You or I would die in prison. Or they can shoot themselves in the asshole, breaking a dozen laws in the process (they'd tote them ALL up if it were you or me) and basically just be publically embarassed.

Phelps wasn't arrested, 8 OTHER people were and they were not pictured, didnt admit to doing anything. There was not only no outrage over that, but hardly even a mention in media.

Michael Vick is about to be released and they're already shopping around for a team that'll take him. Will the NFL lift it's current "indefinite suspension"? If it does, it'll be quiet, and you wont hear about it until it's too late.

Let me put it this way. Pro teams dont give one single shit if an athlete is a "good person". Not even one little tiny shit. They dont go out to hire "role models" they go out to hire contract killers on the field, and that is THAT. If someone HAPPENS to emerge as a role model, it's pure coincidence, and they've simply been very good at hiding their cheating up to that point.
