I know more context is needed, but everything I read displaysthat he’s a real stand up guy….

- “Gastineau has been married three times.”

- “He was estranged from both children in 2010”

- “Shortly after his release from prison in 2001 Gastineau claimed he had put his turbulent past behind him after he had a religious conversion to faith in Jesus Christ.”

- “In 1984, Gastineau was found guilty of assaulting a patron at Studio 54“

- “In 1991, Gastineau was arrested for picking up a package of amphetamine pills at Phoenix Sky Harbor Airport.”

- “In September 2000, Gastineau was sentenced to 18 months in jail after failing to complete an anger management course after hitting his second wife Patricia.”

On a lighter note “ In 1987, Gastineau was the only Jet regular to immediately cross the picket line in that year's players' strike, citing his need to pay alimony. Teammate Dave Jennings said of this understandably unpopular move: "We expected it from Mark. He's always put himself in front of the team." The crossing brought to a head longstanding tensions between Gastineau and his teammates; he had never been popular in the locker room.”

How trashy do you have to be to IMMEDIATELY cross the picket line to have to pay alimony
