Their children still send them money back home, trust me.

I'm not saying they don't. I'm saying it's not right for parents to accept money and then try to spin it into they couldn't survive otherwise. And both of ODB's parents are college graduates. His step father is a former Olympian. ODB also went to the same private school as Peyton Manning. I doubt seriously his family was ever hurting for money. But that's beside the point. I am fully aware of players getting paid and some sending money home to their families, whether their family needed it or not. What I don't like is excuses being made that they absolutely needed the money from their children just to get by.
