Question 16

Read the given excerpt carefully and answer the question on the basis of the information given in the passage.

The time must surely be approaching when Australians stop forgiving their sports stars for illegal drug escapades and begin treating them for what they are: highly paid professionals in whom the community and businesses have invested billions of dollars.
Athletes are also very human. A few of them, like some of us, drink alcohol to excess. They take risks. They can treat others appallingly. The younger blokes are easily intoxicated by fame, fortune and female adoration. Their physical prowess can tend to lead them towards a misconception of being bullet-proof.
Little wonder an increasing proportion of sportspeople view taking illegal drugs such as cocaine as a legitimate form of recreation. The allegations involving four rugby league players, a Cronulla club official and retired Socceroo Mitch Nichols, simply highlight a cultural problem that has been known in sporting circles for years.
With money as plentiful as relatively as a cheap coke, and so many athletes’ just kids in men's bodies, what could possibly go wrong? Yes, society has a drug problem and sport mirrors that, albeit with so much money floating around the risk-taking is magnified. Like it or not, athletes are role models. To fulfill that duty they must behave in line with community expectations.
Three decades ago society tut-tutted but almost expected big boofy blokes to get drunk after a game of footy. Booze was legal, after all. And most players had jobs away from the game. Cocaine use is risk-taking and illegal behavior that imperils the health of athletes and their ability to perform to their potential over time. Most of all it perpetuates an attitude that threatens to undermine vulnerable members of the next generation of talented sportspeople.
Yes, it's tough on athletes to meet a higher duty of behavior than the rest of us. But they owe it to their employers, shareholders, fans and fellow citizens. And they get the big bucks to compensate.
High-profile athletes are an expensive and crucial cog in a huge money-making machine. As such there's a perverse incentive to turn a blind eye to bad behavior because it can reinforce the risk-taking and ability to push to the limits that produces exciting play on the field. That incentive remains up to the point where arrests, violence and mental health concerns emerge. Then, too often, ill-equipped players find themselves jettisoned and struggling outside the game.
There is a clear ethical difference in demanding high standards of current athletes and expecting retired ones to be just as self-controlled. However, the problem behavior that grows during a sporting career will be difficult to remedy when the dizzy heights become the retirement lows. The lifestyles athletes follow during their peak years and the support they get to make smart choices will be reflected in how they cope as their careers tail off.
