I rant a lot about professional sports and how much I dislike them. I have 2 reasons, but the biggest point of contention - is that many of these men (in particular) are held up as examples of heros. These are the "heros" to many kids who desperately need a father figure or example of an adult to watch and learn from. The contention for me is that they are only sports stars for a short amount of time. Would it be too much to ask these guys to keep their business in their pants, or at home in the liquor cabinet, or in the medicine cabinet. This is a unfairly short address of an issue that is much more complex and deserves a real discussion. But seriously, how can any of you approve of professional sports - when so many of them are out there influencing your children? (DON'T ANSWER THIS QUESTION HERE. (Look up rhetorical I'm not asking for an answer) This is part of why I can't stand to watch professional sports. This type of thinking/behavior is also why I can't stand to watch television or listen to music and glorify the celebrities who bring us the arts. I can think of - right off the top of my head - a particular music artist - who has escaped numerous charges regarding underaged girls (13 -15 years of age). And still his music is selling.

WITH ALL THAT SAID: I want to share someone I admire very much. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glen_Coffee
