It has to be more than a coincidence that the nfl players who've gotten into visible trouble this year have all done so because of friends from their teens or college days (and we should quickly reflect that randy's is the least serious of what we have heard). in this case, it seems (we can't know) that moss felt an attachment to this woman and that there was a relationship there.
i just plain feel bad for the guy that he didn't have friends around him who could have helped him see this coming and also that, despite his remarkable achievements in life, he couldn't move beyond old ties and find a new world of friends in which to move about. he seems like a genuinely good person.
