Melanie . Reporter dr. Michelle clear says the 49ers have been playing well, despite troubles on the field and says people are likely to watch for all kinds of reasons, including these developments. Since 2012, the 49ers are leading in player arrests. Alden smiths making up nearly half of those. When there is numerous episodes of this behavior that it is important to take a step back, and get it figured out. Reporter dr. Michelle clear is an elite performance coach. She work was athletes and others in the spotlight. I think one of the way thats probably comes out some of the pressures is drinking, partying. Reporter ray mcdonald and others have faced other dui charges. Dr. Clear says there is a sense of entitlement. Its okay, i work hard and play hard. I should be able to have, and do these things. Reporter she says she hears accountability. He wont be playing football for the San Francisco 49ers he will be supported and helped. And he will not have to walk this path alone. That comes from ownership and down. Reporter 49ers head coach suggesting smith could emerge stronger. In terms of him playing football again, i sure hope so. I think he can. I want him to. If he gets help, comes back, strong and dealt with the issues that have come up with him, i think chances are good hell get an opportunity to play. Reporter an opportunity she says it could get his life on track and impact others positively as well. When asked whether or not a precedent had been set by previous incidents or will be set by this one, the 49ers coach said they try to be consistent in what is a gray area and try to look at how to help each player individually. Melanie, thank you. Abc7 sports director larry beil is here. And niners are just a week from the first preseason game. Its bad timing all the way around. Think about what the team has been through in the past year. Jim harbaugh leaves, okay . Frank gore leaves. You have two linebackers who retire. You have a 1 billion stadium which you cannot build grass in. More problems with that. And your arguably best defensive player kicked off the team. Its a disaster and got to be a huge blow for the niners. As troubled as alden smith is off the field, hes a great player on the field. That is why he has had chance after chance and may have chance was other teams. Most of us look and see a young, talented guy and think after four arrests youd get the message. If you look at the police report, in every incident, alcohol seems to be a factor here. You think about what is on the line, 10 million, not going to get that. Maybe 100 million if able to play well and stay out of trouble. All of that is gone. Out the window. Suspended nine games last year. Nfl may suspend him again depending on the details in this case. Alden has godgiven ability few people on the planet have, or ever have and is throwing it away. Just cant control himself. It is such a waste of talent and potential. Its beyond sad. And you can see that reflected in the coach, who was emotionally distraught today because he worked with alden smith every day. Its got to tear him up, and the team as well. The timing could not be worse. Well have more coming up in sports. But sad. Yes. Hopefully he can turn it around for himself. Thanks, larry.

Finally tonight a few thoughts about what really matters. Ten years ago today we lost a remarkable american. Legendary anchor Peter Jennings succumbed to lung cancer in 2005. He was a canadian by birth and he was in many ways an american all along. First, an american success story. Rising to the top of a verydemanding profession with only a 10th grade education. People dont know that. He was always self conscious being a High School Drop out and worked hard wrest to be the smartest person in the room. He cared about the under dog and less fortunate, donating time and money to help, never calling atension to it. 30 years ago i emulated Peter Jennings. I had a chance to work with him and it was inspiring and intimidating. No one was better. What matters is that those of us in this profession remember what he stood for, we would all do well to continue to emulate Peter Jennings, let me know what you think.
