Athletes are NOT perfect

Ok first before I start I want to say I do not agree with what Tiger Woods or Mike Vick did!!!

With that said everyone get off there athletes backs. Who are we to judge then for what they did. What Tiger did was a terrible thing and for him to violate the beauty of his marriage is awful, but he doesn't owe ANYONE an apology but his wife. I', so tired of hearing press, fellow golfers, and so called friends throwing Tiger under the bus. Truth be told the golf world should be trying to help Tiger as best they can because everyone knows he is the saving grace of the PGA tour. I have even seen the Tiger story on CNN I mean come on you guys dont have anything better to report than the fact Tiger Woods went to a rehab clinic. I feel about this story the same way I feel about steroids in baseball, I DON'T CARE ANYMORE MOVE ON!!! The best thing for Tiger now is to win a few PGA tour tournaments and the world will forget all about this. Take A-Rod for example I bet a lot of people forgot his steroids admittance once he led the yankees to a world series. This shows just how fickle our society is and how much it is a "What have you done for me lately" generation no loyalty what so ever!!

And in the case of Mike Vick I am a huge dog lover and I own a pit bull so I was deeply hurt by what he did. But you know what who am I to condemn the man for his mistakes? This man got 23 months in Jail for funding a dog fighting ring and there are people in this world who get convicted or murdering another human being and they get less than a year in jail??? Makes NO SENSE TO ME AND IT NEVER WILL. Regardless of what he did in the past, I still cheer for Vick to not only turn his life around but to shut up all the people who just bad mouth him!!

I understand because they are in the public light athletes are held to a higher standard and are expected to hold that standard, which I agree with because like it or not they are children's role model, but we have to remember they are human too and will make mistakes. And parents if you are tired of your kids being influenced by the "bad athletes' become a bigger part in their life so they will look up to you!! Because even though I played football my whole life and know the sport like the back of my hand my mother has been and always will be my biggest role model!! So when they do it angers me to hear people say oh well "Mike Vick shouldn't be allowed to play in the NFL anymore" those people sound just stupid to me and hey if you don't agree with me just read my blogs tag line "Just my thoughts, right or wrong, just how I am feeling at the time."

Fairweather fans

Super Bowl 44 didn’t end like I wanted it to and my Colts dropped a tough one against a very good saints team. Now I could get into what went wrong and what could have been better, but what really has me upset is the fair-weather fanness going on right now.

I HATE FAIRWEATHER FANS, I repeat I HATE FAIRWEATHER FANS!!!!
The people who just hate the Colts now all of a sudden they are screaming who dat, ummm Im pretty sure you couldn’t name 5 players on the Saints team, you are just mad that we either A. Beat your team B. are better than your team C. Made it further than your team or D. All the above. Now if you are just rooting against the Colts that’s fine, but don’t all of a sudden act like you love the Saints umm no you are a Chargers fan not a Saints, Baltimore, and Jets fan.

I also hate the people who are acting like the Colts are the worst team ever because we lost one game, like 2 weeks ago when we beat the Jets you were all “I bleed blue and go colts” now you are talking about you are done with Colts? I mean come on, The Saints flat out beat us that does not mean the Colts are a bad team and even if we were a bad team have some loyalty. I was a fan back when if we won 8 games that was a great season!!!!

Here is my advice for ALL fair-weather fans KILL YOUR SELF!!! Go find the nearest bridge, tall building, cliff, canyon, Ocean with Sharks, Lake with piranhas, or a river with crocodiles and JUMP!!! Sports fans need to have some loyalty, like those TRUE saints fans who marched after every win, back in the days when they only won 4 games that’s the kind of sports loyalty I love!!!!! I still love my Colts and I still love my Pacers (Lord knows we are going through some things right now though)!! I will always bleed Colts Blue, Pacers Gold, and Purdue and WC old gold!!
