Why are professional athletes constantly in legal trouble?

[Doom_Guy]

Why are professional athletes (particularly football and basketball) CONSTANTLY in trouble with the law and being arrested for crimes such as drug sale/possession, DUI/DWI, unregistered firearms, assault, rape, sexual harassment, gang affiliation, and sometimes even murder?

Recently an NFL player named Aaron Hernandez was sentenced to life without parole for murdering two people in a gang-related homicide.

He was so dumb that he spat out chewing gum with his saliva/DNA on it AT the crime scene.

Recently? Way to keep up to date.

Didn't some team achieve fame recently when they actually had one member who WASN'T a felon?
