             Drug addicts, murderers, and rapists- cell block C at Indiana State Prison? No, they are professional athletes that little kids and some adults look up to. About 4 AM on the Monday following the Super Bowl two men were killed in Atlanta. This would not have made the news except for who was arrested in connection to the murders. Ray Lewis, a professional football player who plays for the Baltimore Ravens, was in a Cadillac driving away from the murder scene. He was found not guilty and will go on to make 26 million dollars with the Ravens. .
             Two years ago Darryl Strawberry, who plays baseball for the New York Yankees, was convicted of cocaine possession and soliciting a female police officer. Strawberry didn't serve any prison time even though he is a bigger drug addict than the crack head that lives down the street from my grandmother. Athletes are supposed to set an example of leadership, and sportsmanship, not set an example on how to hide as much weed as you can in your truck. For up with nothing more than a speeding ticket, and maybe an endorsement deal. .
             Thunder Collins, the Nebraska Cornhusker's running back, was charged with beating up his live-in girlfriend, twice. Instead of jail time or even a fine, all he's getting is some counseling. Since we"re on the subject of criminal football players I"m pretty sure the Dallas Cowboys have more mob connections then the Corleones. .
             One of Carolina Panthers wide receivers, Rae Carruth, found out last Friday, he would be going to prison for his part in the murder of Cherica Adams, although he would not face the death penalty for it. Carruth was found guilty of conspiracy to commit murder, shooting into an occupied vehicle, and using an instrument to destroy an unborn child. Somehow he was found not guilty of first-degree murder. Pro athletes have beaten their wives, been caught with over 200 pounds of marijuana, and have been accused of killing their pregnant girlfriends.
