Blame ESPN.
Who's the better receiver, T.O. or Marvin Harrison?
Who gets more airtime?
ESPN rewards poor behavior.

God this thread is getting soo idiotic. People in general want to see drama and controversy which is obviously why TO gets soo much air-time. It's got nothing to do with rewarding poor behaviour (though this is kinda an unfortunate by-product), its just giving the viewing public what they want to see.

This is a good point, its not that they reward bad behavior, they just reward outstanding behavior. And it is easier to stand out by trying to kill yourself or hitting a traffic cop with your car than by saving a bus full of burning orphans or something. When athletes (white or black) do something outlandishly positive, ESPN spends all day boring me to death with THAT crap too.
