Out of curiosity, if I rob a bank, and thousands of people go broke, but I donate every penny to the Red Cross to help out the tsunami victims, am I a sinner?

professional athletes are also sinning, they are waisting there life on a game, much like poker, where they take gross amount of money from the fans. Im not saying there shouldnt be organized sports, but you should have to hold a real job and not steal mone from the fans.
