It’s a very short career , that’s just one more sacrifice they have to make among many…and I would absolutely be against doing illegal stuff to “unwind”…if you need drugs to unwind I would suggest it more of an issue with how you handle stress than anything else.I think thats a bit of a stretch.
Its an incredibly high pressure job and with club rules and skinfolds theyre barely allowed to have a few beers to unwind. Im not saying break out the violins for them but you cant just be 100% professional athlete 100% of the time. You need some release.
Just my opinion
