Hall of Famer Warren Sapp arrested for soliciting a prostitute, fired from NFL Network

http://sports.yahoo.com/blogs/nfl-shutdown-corner/hall-of-famer-warren-sapp-arrested-for-soliciting-a-prostitute--assault-203922606.html

Hall of Fame player and NFL Network analyst Warren Sapp was arrested Monday morning for soliciting a prostitute as well as assault, which was first reported by TMZ.com.

The incident occured at a hotel in Phoenix, where Sapp was covering Super Bowl XLIX, and occured around 7 a.m. local time....

According to reports citing a Phoenix Police Department report, "officers working security at a Downtown Phoenix hotel were investigating a noise disturbance when they were contacted by a female alleging she had been assaulted." The argument, reportedly over money, spilled into the hotel hallway.

Sapp was charged for domestic battery in 2010, although it was eventually dropped. He was also arrested for domestic battery in 2014 in Miami. He has been fired by the NFL Network, where he'd worked as an analyst.

2 times he was charged with domestic battery. I guess doing it at the Super Bowl is what did him in.

I don't get why people are willing to risk throwing away the sort of lifestyle working for the NFL could give him.
