Time for a RANT!
I LOVE SPORTS. While I admit I’m a Die hard NASCAR fan I also enjoy the more traditional sports, like college football, and Basketball. I say COLLEGE
sports, because lest be honest once you make the big leagues it looses it’s fun. It becomes about money and groupies..BLAHWhat I HATE is stupid wannabe fans who think they know, have to voice every childish nasty thought and attack the athletes, their other fans, their personal lives, even their families and good deeds!
I went on a topix forum to check on what I thought was news of one of my favorite racers. Here were a slue of supposed fans bashing this guy, his wife, his charitable actions, and each other.
GET A GRIP PEOPLE! Honestly think about this.
You finally manage after a lifetime of dreaming to make it as a full time athlete. Your family struggling to support your effort, your friends rooting you on through every small achievement, you putting your other life goals aside to reach the point in your career that you can be at least somewhat proud of.
Finally a multi-year contract falls in your lap. Heck you earned it right?
So with SOME security you decide you’ve reached 1 dream it’s time to reach a few more. You spend every waking moment you aren’t stuck to your team, and it’s demands, giving back to your community, and to the charities you hold near and dear.
You FINALLY take a chance on love for the first time in a LONG time and hey it’s working out. You get married.
Then you go to your ever faithful fans to see what they are up to and all you read are rumors about how terrible a person you are. How your wife is nothing more than a money grubbing wench out for her moment in the spotlight and you are just a needed rung on her ladder.
You hear how your “charity” work is all a hoax to benifit you in the long run or some member of your family, that you don’t REALLY care you just THINK you care.
Next thing you know you read article about your wife having an affair, Heck a few even challenge whether you are faithful to her.
I’m SERIOUS people sit back and think about what you are doing! Not just to the reputations of people you honestly don’t know, but to yourselves.
I hate a NASTY Sports Fan!
Who got your panties all in a wad. You either are one of those girls who thinks if you suck up then you have a chance at the athlete or you’re a friend or family member of the athlete. I vote for the second one. Go back to the rock you crawled out of.
@dogooder honestly I’m niether. I just think people run off on hatefull tangents without thinking of the hurt it can cause people. I happen to like athlete for their capabilities on the track, court, field, what have you. I leave their presonal lives alone. As for the rock… (I’m sure you meant to say crawled out from under) It’s gone… I’m here and I’m staying a rant a week .. like me or not!
