I understand the concern some of you are putting forth, believe me. I myself wish he would make some better choices sometimes. However, one cannot argue, he's been an upstanding citizen. There are bigger fish to fry in the realm of atheletes gone awry. It's not so bad with Stevie. He's a 26 year old who's enjoying his life. Just as has been pointed out in this thread, he's not breaking laws. That's saying a LOT in the current climate of professional sports. Just today we hear about Von Miller. Cut him some slack. He's worked hard, he's arrived, now let him have a little fun. I think a lot of you would be doing the same.
As far as what kind of standard should be set, I would also argue that that line is being blurred more and more with this current generation also. It seems that so much more is acceptable every year. It's a scary proposition in some respects. While we are constantly moving forward in some areas, it appears to me that we are quickly regressing in our social lives. This may be due to the ever increasing access to information and the smaller and smaller emphasis on face to face social activity that breeds respect for one another. All these message board hero's can sit behind their keyboards and spew hatred or inappropriate things. I digress, we could go on and on about this.
