Athletes getting too many breaks

On Thursday U.S. District Judge David Doty ruled in favor of Adrian Peterson's suspension. Judge Doty overturned NFL arbitrator Harold Henderson. Peterson's suspension for beating his son with a switch will soon slowly go down the drain. What does the Peterson case show you? It shows that professional athletes could do something terribly wrong and within a small window can be reinstated and be in the lineup on Sunday's. Something is very wrong in today's society. If an average male did the same exact thing that Adrian Peterson did and beat your son with a switch, then that person would be in jail for a very long time. Sometime in the very near future free-agent and former Carolina Panther Greg Hardy will be appealing the NFL's decision on his suspension. I am going to guess and say that Hardy will be reinstated to league in the very near future. I hope that someone out there will stand up and say no to these players getting breaks and being able to play in the league again. You can make your own opinion on this subject.

Italian soccer claims to have too many 'colored players' in the game

In a recent article done by the New York times, former coach of the Italian national soccer team, Arrigo Sacchi told reporters that he spotted too man players on the championship team that wasn't white. This is still a problem in today's society. The fact that a form of racism still occurs. Mr. Sacchi is captured in a video of arguing at a large number of foreigners in the junior ranks of the nation's professional clubs. Mr. Sacchi was not referring to the non-Italians, but to the color of their skin. Mr. Sacchi (68) today claims that he is not a racist. He also claims that never once was he ever a racist, but I see to disagree with him. First off, back in 1994 during the World Cup, videos capture him as he explicitly and clearly talking about how many more 'colored players' (as he puts it) there are than Italian players. In the article Sacchi claims that he is just looking out for his country, and that also he has coached many teams before with different nationalities on it. On the current Italian national team, one person took issue with these comments, Mario Balotelli. Mr. Balotelli, who's parents are from Ghana. Mr. Balotelli has been taunted with comments for years, from loyal fans of the national team. Mr. Balotelli agent commented as saying on behalf of his client that he is "ashamed to be Italian". Everyone out there can make there own opinion on whether or not Mr. Sacchi is looking out for his country or if he is just a full-blown racist.
