Pilots are paid to perform a certain task. As long, as they are able to do it safely, it is more or less tolerable to take a drink. It is also OK for pilots to eat whatever fast food they please.
Players are paid not just to perform, but to outperform opposition, who are presumably not drunk and at their best possible shape. Hence it is reasonable to demand them to not let alcohol and junk food to decrease their performance level.
