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."
