Well, not exactly walking, unless you consider walking around the apartment with slippers on with a cellphone in your hand.
For those who listen to my New York Giants reports on WCHR's 'What's Going On', I spend a little more time on the show from time to time, depending on the topic. Today, we will continue the at-large discussion on the Sean Taylor case. Tune in today at 3:00PM on 90.3 FM or online at either whcr.org or myspace.com/whcr.
Say What?!?!: There are a few articles that I feel are worth the read in regards to this tragedy. If you have not read them, take the time to do so. From ESPN, Wayne Drehs finds some reactions from several NFL players who feel that pro athletes have huge bullseyes on their backs. Also Len Pasquerelli of the Worldwide Leader has one of the few articles that boldly deal with the reality of the situation for the Washington Redskins. Finally, another personal favorite, Dan Wetzel of Yahoo! Sports wants folks to really think of the kind of year this as been for the NFL. However, do try to enjoy these games, if only for a moment.
Perception is reality, the saying goes. Modern players can never transcend time, athletes only care about the money and the fan is never wrong. Yet, all you need to do is dig a little deeper to find the truth. As a freelance sportswriter, my job is to give the audience a story around what just happened. As a consumer, I expect that sports will always provide more than I bargained for. As a fan, my hopes are to be enlightened by more than points. Welcome to the mind of a sports scribe.
