Rachael- Sports.

I think that sports ARE a good thing, to an extent. People who get really worked up about sports have something positive to like. And kids who play sports are less likely to get into trouble with drinking and drugs. I do think that sports are overrated, however. College Football for example, those men go out there and make millions, while the doctors working in Haiti right now are getting little to nothing, and working much hard. AND they are working for a good cause. I dont think they should get paid as much as they do. It bugs me that doctors get paid less than professional athletes. They are SAVING LIVES, not tackeling a fellow 400 pound hamburger and making a mob of obnoxious people screech like baboons. I do believe that sports should be a part of schools, they keep kids out of trouble. And it is a positive way to relieve stress. I define a sport as anything that is challenging and fun. For example, Golf. Sport. I dont care who says its a "hobby". There is ALOT more to things like that than a alot of people know.

  1. Uh . . . do you really think that participating in sports keeps kids AWAY from drugs and alcohol? Apparently you don't have the same kind of jocks at this school as I did at my school. Those guys were drunk every weekend, and stoned in between binges. Good to know that the athletes here take better care of themselves and follow all the rules.
