I'm skeptical of sports guys in general because of that particular aspect. They're hypocrites when it comes to what they say about family and what they do (every team sport). But by the same token if Kobe's rape allegation or Ja's gun touting are your gauges of where to gauge good, I don't think that's right either. The casual drug use by so many people is extensive in hockey as well. I wouldn't be looking for a saint, as it'd be pretty rare in sports in general, but I really can't support most who don't put their family interests first and do that.
