Is this guy for real? "hard-earned money"? What world do these athletes live in that a guy who plays a sport for a living and is a top 0.1% income earner in the United States (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Affluence_i...) gets high to the detriment of his performance, parties to the detriment of his team during the playoffs, and just generally has not performed, period, all year, in what distorted world is it that a comment like that should be made for a fine against that person for bad sportsmanship holds any water at all?
These sports divas need a reality check. "Hard-earned money"? Get a grip. You guys play a game, that the rest of us play for free. Consider yourselves fortunate to make what you make in spite of your lack of professionalism and just STFU.
