Gifted athlete, Heisman trophy winner, NFL superstar, actor, media darling, fugitive, armed robber, convict.... wow, what a resume! How can someone fall so far? Is it stress? Is it the media? How did O.J. Simpson end up taking such a long and winding road? It's sad, really. No matter your position on Juice, it's ultimately sad. From a perspective of humanity, where does the blame lie? Maybe we are all capable of similar moves. Fame and wealth have a way of twisting normalcy (see Dennis Rodman). Most of us will never be in a situation to test that theory. We're pretty boring. It's not an excuse but it is an intriguing discussion as to why the ones who make it big fall so hard. It might be just a percentage thing. In other words, the same percentage of famous people go bad as does the percentage of the rest of us. Maybe. But the question is why... why would you find yourself in situations that might tear down your image, destroy your credibility, tarnish your name? Well, if I get famous and fall, I'll e-mail you and give you my reasons. For now, we'll chalk it up to human error.
