You don't need thugs and hoodlums to win games.
I literally bumped into Fred Weary last weekend at a Kroger. He could not have been more cordial and friendly. We chatted a few minutes about his injury, football and BBQ techniques.

if players know that all most people are going to want is a hello and a handshake (maybe an autograph or a picture too

) then it's probably easier to deal with. personally, if i played a game for a living i would consider this my "work". i'm not saying a weirdo doesn't come along now and then but i think most football fans know not to make a big scene if you see a player out in public.
