The takeaway confirms what most of us thought in the first place, that these are spoiled rich kids that have no respect for the game, their fellow players, their coaches or their teams and certainly not the fans.
It's pretty disgusting that we pay hard earned money to watch these punks.

Hate to break it but Orr, Greztky and Lemieux probably acted the same way. It's just that back then, there wasn't this omnipresent surveillance like we have today.

While i agree with your uber rich athletes sentiment, but they're plain old ordinary people just like you and me. Only difference, aside from their athletic ability, is they've seen a lifestyle that the majority of us never have nor never will get to live. So it's quite understandable that some of these guys get a little jaded or look down their nose attitudes. They live in a bubble.

I'm not condoning it, but like i said, give me any group of buddies, co-workers what have you, there's always a few that like to gossip and poop talk the others.
