Yasiel Puig doesn't give a single damn about his L.A. home being burglarized last week -- telling TMZ Sports, "I have too much f**king money in my life."

Puig was leaving the Lakers game at Staples Center on Sunday when he opened up about the home invader that broke into his place during Game 7 of the World Series.

"I ain't worried about that sh*t," Puig said ... assuring his fans, "I have a f**king lot of money."

This. No pro athlete should ever go broke. They should be raking in the cash opening a training facility or going around and doing clinics. Obviously character plays into this. Don't think parents will be jumping at the bit to put their kid in clinics with Jameis Winston for example.

I think Puig is awesome and wish there were more characters like him in all of sports. Guys who you love on your team and all others hate are what make it fun

I get his sentiment but it seems like you’re just inviting further crime by saying that.

I disagree and find him to be kinda douchey, but to each their own. I just like the strong, silent type players I guess.

The guy is living out every dream he ever had I would imagine. People that came from nothing generally have perspective.

I mean, who wouldn't want Jameis to tell their little girl to be silent?

You don't want your kid learning the proper techniques for eating W's?

Or Peyton Manning, right? Oh wait, that’s a thing. The manning passing academy

If cell phone videos were a thing when half of the top 90s/00s stars were in college, i believe you would be shocked

Doubt it. Is there really anything a star athlete could do that would shock us anymore? These guys are human, and they make mistakes just like us. Some just make really stupid mistakes.

Considering the jokes you’re making about Winston, all while ignoring my Manning comment.. yes. I think you would be shocked

Allegedly, the guy wasn’t the big goofy QB who likes to sing a jingle in college

Whatever, guy.

I knew a guy once, one of the nicest people I knew. Guy would go out of his way to help anyone. He got busted for having child pornography on his computer.

You think a high profile athlete doing some shady shite would surprise me? These guys get away with all sorts of shite because of their status as athletes. And that's not a new thing.

Abd FWIW, I've heard of some of those allegations against Manning. It wouldn't surprise me at all if they are true. College kids have a tendency to do stupid shite.
