Sometimes I have to wonder why some of the ball players are in trouble. If they could just stay calm and go on with their careers. Lately in the headlines I've been seeing Rashee Rice who plays on the Kansas City Chiefs team. I hate the headlines I've been seeing about him. Every time I look and every time I turn around I see somebody's name with a career that has the word alleged assault. 


Rashee Rice is accused of assault at Dallas nightclub. Dallas police have reportedly opened a new criminal investigation into Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Rashi Rice. He's already charged with eight felonies for a high-speed hit and run crash in late March that injured four people. Rashee has a football career. I don't understand why he's getting into all that trouble. He's got something to look forward to in life.  

I don't understand any ball player that gets into so much trouble. I don't understand the domestic violence of some ball players. I don't understand the sexual assault cases. Ball players get suspended and something needs to be done. Every time I turn around somebody's getting arrested on assault charges. There is no excuse. They need to stay out of trouble.

A ball player can be a positive example, and they have the power to turn somebody else's life around that’s down. They could be doing positive things to make this a better world. If a ball player or anyone for that matter has a career and maybe came from a rough town or city in crime can change. They can make a difference in their life and maybe somebody else's life.  I know that they are human too and sometimes face challenges and struggles like anyone else. But if they could just avoid getting into trouble with the law and move on to have a wonderful career.
