Footballers Grog Coke Aggression and Roids

wow, nice thread.

Just a question, whenever you here kids/teenagers/young adults get into blues/get blind and act like a goose (we've all done it and still do, including you parents who think football players shouldn't be allowed too), is there excuse ever,(along the line of) "I was influenced by football players", NO.

The most likely culprute for this happening is them seeing a mate doing it, probably even a sibling, more likely they've seeen there parents tipped up (and acting like a goose as you do when you have a few); but heaven forbid a young male football player go out and do this it might influence our kids to do this.

The last thing about the women, I'm not saying that group sex or raping a sheila is acceptable, cause it's not...EVER. However the feeling i'm getting here is that some people think that footy players are the only culpruts of this, please. Males are males, football players or not, and including the group sex, which would happen more without football players, but we don't here about it.

So all I ask people is look at society as a whole; footballers are the least of the problems for you and your kids.
 
AFL chief executive Andrew Demetriou has told Carlton bad boy Brendan Fevola to "wake up to himself" after his booze-fuelled antics at Monday night's Brownlow Medal count.

Well, well, well... Check out last year's Footy Show 'Street Talk' segment at Brownlow medal night... AFL boss Andrew Demetriou joking around with a very drunken Fevola! :eek:

- 4:28 second mark

How do you expect players to react when the CEO of the AFL mucks around with a drunken player last year (on camera too!), then blasts that same player this year for doing the same thing, then sits back and allows the players club to sack him.

 
Brenden Fevola is getting pasted for behaviour that would have a negative influence on youth....ie he lost control of his actions due to over indulgence of alcohol.

He is responsible for this??????

What about Channel 9??? They aired the segment and then condemned him.

If the segment was not aired, there would be no bad behaviour role model would there?

This TV channel, who were probably sober when they made the decision to air the segment, should be carrying some blame for bad behaviour here.

They acted irresponsibly. But gee, what a great ratings grabber....

So much for how they look after their employees. By airing it, they jeopardised the career of one of their own. I suppose he's disposable, plenty more where he came from.
