So what is it with NFL receivers?
They have become the new all-purpose sports villain.
Early Friday morning Tennessee Titans receiver Chris Davis was busted for DWI.
The day before former Giants receiver Plaxico Burress pleaded guilty to illegally packing a pistol and got two years.
That sentence was notable, because Browns receiver Donte Stallworth got just 24 days for killing a person when driving drunk.
And the Cowboys upended their entire franchise by getting rid of receiver Terrell Owens in the off-season — causing the Bills to upend their entire franchise by signing him.
And the Bengals wish they could get rid of their perennial headache, receiver Chad Johnson/Ocho Cinco.
And first-round draft-pick receiver Michael Crabtree is threatening to shock the NFL by not signing with his team and sitting out a year.
I could go on, but I think you get the point. Which is:
How is it that catching a football turns normal jocks into head cases?
Oh, for the good ol’ days, when wrasslers and boxers caused all the trouble in sports.

The only real football is high school football. God bless the kids, and may they grow up to become successful, happy, honest men instead of pro football players.
Mack, you are an un-American commie ratfink! Without beer and football, what else is there? Job? Family? Faith? Nahhhh -- football.
Did ya ever see John Wayne in TROUBLE ALONG THE WAY? A wonderful little film with Wayne as a football coach at a Catholic college.
