i always wonder what people expect...
these people... that get famous, that get their butt kissed... this is what happens
when a tv star goes on drugs to handle the pressure better, people don't respond this way either...
i agree that he was very wrong for treating people like he did..
but cmon.. do us 'normal' people have any idea what happens within this kind of carreers?
no i don't think we do, i look at it the same way i look at bashing athletes for other mistakes: WRONG
untill we have an experienced top athlete in this discussion, i don't think we can say much about the way these things work
are we just suposed to forget everything he did well for the sport?
are we suposed to forget what he did with his cancer organisation helping others?
judging a person in whole, for mistakes he made in parts of his life is just wrong to me
yes he made wrong decisions, and it's wrong that it affected people that it shouldn't
but don't forget the hundreds of people around him and many other athletes that LET IT HAPPEN, and joined in for the money, fame, and what not
also... newpapers print lies all the time, i don't really feel sorry for them...
look back at every person you did wrong... you probably did some person very wrong also... you're just not beeing watched by the entire world
