Dear B'more fan, I'll give you that Ray Lewis is a gifted player, although I like my football with more offensive firepower. The Ravens are a good defensive team.
As for your other points, unfortunately, the society does see athletes as role models and holds them to a higher standard of conduct, expects nobility.
Because Lewis and other athletes are seen as role models, he was, IMO, obligated to conduct himself in a better fashion while the scenario of what happened at the Super Bowl was going on. Including showing some sense of contrition and empathy for two families who lost children. Period.
