Well here is my two cents: Jayson Williams descent in to ////edness sorry for a lack of better words is disturbing....His bio reads like a twilight zone from hell. He also is another one of these athletes less than forth coming when it comes to owning up and taking responsibility.
Williams is already in jail for the accidental shooting of a limo driver Gus Christofi and than there was the too bizarre incident which was an alleged suicide attempt where the NYPD had to taser him....not self destructive and bizarre enough so he gets drunk and hits a tree here in NYC a week before sentencing for the accidental shooting of Gus Christofi.
Something is very wrong with this elite group of athletes that earn obscene amounts of money and have luxuries that people can only dream of -- if the even bother to dream and these guy in the most violent, thoughtless and stupid ways flush it all away leaving bullet wounds, broken marriages, crushed kids and more....
Why is that....? Why so prevalent. Having a great athletic ability doesn't make you above the law, accountability, etc. and it is very wrong to send a message that it does. Why so little self respect for oneself and for others. You can buy fancy cars but so what...what did a big fancy house and cars mean when you go to jail or break you family's heart?
he does seem like he's turning his life around on the matt maher site----time will tell----
