Well as a recent college grad who is now enjoying summer, there have been many a nights when my frolicking has lasted into the wee hours of the morning.

I agree that it is about good judgement, and that stature has made these athletes constant targets, but you have to remember that these are young guys who go out, wanting to have a good time. Prior to having lots of money, this is probably the type of life they were living. Vet or rookie, famous or not, most people want to have a good time. If he chooses to spray the crowd with Dom P, and make it rain with $100 bills to have a good time, then just so long as he isn't hurting anyone, or breaking team rules, so be it. It doesn't mean that this guy should be targeted, robbed and assaulted (I know that isn't what you're implying).

You make these comments now, but just a little while ago when Sean Taylor was ruthlessly murdered, several people in and out of the media said that he had it coming for returning to Fla. and his past encounters, etc. Darrent Williams shouldn't have been targeted either, its just people with envy and jealousy targeting these guys. That shouldn't stop them from having a good time.
