If You Dated a Footy Player, Would You Sell Your Story?

If you dated a footballer would you sell your story to the media?
Barry Hall's ex-girlfriend Tahli Greenwood gave a kiss-and-tell interview on Channel 9 revealing intimate details of her relationship with the Sydney Swans star.
This got us thinking. Would you sell your story to the media? Is it wrong to sell details of your personal life? Or are sports players role models and need to be set an example of?
What do you think?

I think it's wrong that jilted lovers feel the need to spill the beans on their private lives in public, especially as it seems a lot of it is done out of spite.
But it's equally as bad that commercial media networks coax these stories from the vulnerable by offering up the big bucks.

Would I sell my story? No way!
No amount of money would cover the public humiliation of having my dirty laundry aired in public!

The basic human will do anything for material gain. I don't neccesarily agree with it but without money the world would collapse into the universe...

Mitch B, I think it's sad that you think this way. Everything these days is seen as a commodity which is sickening...
What about respect and dignity and privacy?!

Found this on the internet. Though Marty might get some laughs from it.
Pretty funny, and he seems to like the Football player. Nice Mo.
