As far as the other question goes, I think the majority of the players care. There is so much dedication that surrounds football, that I would think it would be hard not to care. But there is a handful of guys (and maybe Davis falls into this category) that don't give a damn about anything besides themselves. In the last couple of weeks I have seen Plaxico Burress, sign a very big contract and then miss a practice, a treatment and pretty much tell the Head Coach to go F himself. This while playing for a champion team who has a good shot a repeating. Pretty selfish, he bitched about a contract for the last 2 years and finally gets it. Then he starts pulling crap. I am sure there are many others.

Basically, nothing suprises me with these guys. They make lots of money and a couple of them constantly do stupid $hit on and off the field.
that's why the steelers got rid of that piece of crap. personally, i'd like to see guys like burress, k. winslow, c. henry and pacman jones run out of the league.
a lot of the problem is those BIG rookie contracts. vernon davis is prime example, #6 overall pick.
