It's scary as hell when we value the ability to pitch and kick balls around more than we do the work of a future scholar or even a factory worker. Tells a lot about our Cro Magnon society, I say.

Athletes at all levels, from high school and college into the pro leagues, are treated like gods and protected from the law, so they feel free to commit whatever crimes they want to. The worst part is that the public at large excuses them or forgives them. Anybody remember Kobe Bryant's conviction for rape?
