Terrell Owens
Terrell Owens is a great example of how you will fail if your attitude is terrible even though you are great at something. Eagles fans may remember the time when T.O. came to Philadelphia and how it seemed like things might start happening for the team as his average was a minimum of one touchdown per game. As everyone knows, T.O. was very outspoken, arrogant, cocky, and a terrible teammate. When he left the Eagles, he went on to play for different teams, but never stuck with anyone, probably because it was awful to work with him. After he retired, he quickly made poor investments, failed to pay child support and owed the IRS more than $400k.
Joe Namath
Former American football quarterback Joseph “Joe” Namath played with the New York Jets for the most of his 13 seasons in the National Football League (NFL) and American Football League (AFL). While playing college football at Alabama, where he assisted the squad in winning the national championship, he was selected first overall by the Jets in the 1965 AFL Draft. Joe may not be completely bankrupt, but it has been speculated upon recently. Namath started making commercial appearances while battling alcoholism. Namath battled alcoholism throughout the early years of his marriage until his wife forewarned him that if he persisted, he might destroy his family. Namath was able to stop drinking by 1987, but he relapsed in 2000 after getting divorced.
