The NFLPA drops the ball yet once again with flawed financial adviser program
Evan Habeeb-USA TODAY SportsThe players' union has let down one of its own thanks to sheer incompetence.
This week, news broke that Broncos quarterback Mark Sanchez and several other prominent athletes had been victims of a sketchy financial adviser who embezzled the athletes' money. Financial adviser Ash Narayan was able to convince Sanchez and 74 other clients, which included multiple prominent athletes, that he could be trusted with their earnings.

Sanchez and Narayan even attended the same church.
