First Edition

I decided to start this blog because I was always left wanting after watching heated arguments on TV or "discussions" on the internet, about whether a certain athlete, coach, umpire, fan, parent, etc. was "right" or "wrong." There is so much to discuss out there. From Little League parents, to millionaire college football coaches there is so much material if you want to have a debate about behavior or ethics in sport today. I'm hoping to look at some of these issues in a little more depth on this blog. Some of the material will be generated by more visible current events in sports but some postings will wander into the on-going debates on issues such as Title IX, the recruiting of college athletes, and violence in sport. In fact, there is really too much material out there. I just started listing in my head all of the issues I could take on and I'm already tired. So I'm going to go rest and think about my first topic.
