That is from every professional athlete.

Looking at the big picture, that isn't that many.

Not even close, that is every athlete worthy of being mentioned that they know of. The reason you recognize tons of names on that list is because it is the ones people know of/worth mentioning.

Obviously tons of guys with careers < 5 years go BK.

Wonder how many of these are truly bankrupt or just filed bankruptcy on a random business venture that went south. For example, Deuce McCalister is on that list because he was a minority partner in a failed automobile dealership that filed bankruptcy. Sure he lost some money but was probably not devastating to him. Don't think he's remotely close to running out of business. In fact, I thought he donated a million to his college not too long ago.

I don't feel sorry for them. 9/10 involve poor money management, get rich scams (like they need more money when you made $20 mil), or women/kids. Feel for the kids more. How will Travis Henry support 9 kids?

He was smarter than most, still a Ponzi scheme. We just had the Vince Young story too.

That 30 for 30 last night should be a mandatory watch for college athletes with pro aspirations.
