Athletics.

Whatever happened to the notion of integrity and good ol' fashioned sportsman-like conduct during an athletic event?

I am getting so tired of hearing such negativity when it comes to sports. Example- I open up my web browser today, only to be faced with an article informing me that Mark McGuire's 60-some odd home run-record breaker was faked. Really people? Then, I go to my regular sports blog for my daily fix, only to read people enjoying the fact that Tom Brady is seriously injured, and could be out for the season. Really people? Don't get me wrong, I am far from being a Tom Brady fan, but it's just not right to be rejoicing over someone's injury. I understand that the love of the game can be overwhelming at times, but being a fan also comes a responsibility of being a civil, sportsman-like fan as well. Set an example for other fans. I am a big fan of the Oregon Ducks. I was rather embarrassed when our fans booed and threw objects at UCLA's center, Kevin Love in last season's game.

What I am trying to get it at is this- Suck it up. I don't care if you are the player, or the fan. Play by the rules and have fun. Keep it real guys, seriously.
