I can appreciate how it could happen. Not every athlete is good with money and don't know how to handle it. Once you have that money every Tom, Dick and Harry is going to come out of the woodwork with ideas on how they can invest all that money. The investments go bad and there goes the money. I've read of hockey players in the past losing thier money on a failed golf course or resort development.
