Good Sportmanship
I just heard a news story about LeBron James leaving the court after his team lost in the playoffs. He didn't congratulate anyone, he just left. They then showed the picture of Roger Feder and the guy he beat at the French Open hugging after the match. I have never played organized sports, but Sonya did and I remember after every game they had to line up, shake each others hands and tell them good game. It didn't matter if you won or lost, I'm sure there were times when some walked that line crying or just didn't want to, but they did it. Wouldn't it be nice if pro atheletes had to do that?! I think it would humble them a little. Have your meltdown about the game later.

Great idea! These pro athletes that make the BIG bucks think it's all about them. A lot of them even snub their fans. It's a $$$ world and I know some pros use their $$$ to help others and do lots of good. However, I do think they've forgotten all about good sportsmanship. Mom
