Not everyone on the team is going to keep their nose clean. You know by today's standards people would characterize Riggo has having "character issues".
I don't buy the "gang ties" stuff, so I am not knocking DJax for that or for anything criminal.

But I would not describe Riggo like DJax because Riggo, by many accounts, was a great teammate. DJax, going back years, appears to have little concept of the idea of a team. Reversing the usual, his motto appears to be, "There is no "team" in "I." Heck, at Cal he didn't even know his teammates' names.

Obviously most folks here differ. His talent and numbers are quite attractive. But he's not the kind of guy who I would want in my locker room.
