Welcome students today we are going to discuss a thing that
has been talked to death. I can guarantee you that it has even been done from
this perspective. Why can I say that because it has never been talked about
from Double K’s point of view. This past year my favorite football team the San
Francisco 49ers were in the NFC Championship game. In this game a young man by
the name of Kyle Williams committed errors that somewhat looking back were
stupid but definitely rookie mistakes. That cost the 49ers a trip to the Super
Bowl….
Now
understand that this upset me as much as it upset most 49er fans and I cursed
Kyle Williams and said that he should never be back returning punts or kicks for
this team again. Even going so far as to say he should be cut this recent
preseason. But never ever did I ever think that this young man should die. Or
that any member of his family should meet any harm including Kyle himself. But
there seems to be contingent of 49ers fans that thought it was ok and their
right to go onto Twitter and other social media outlets and berate this young
man with various messages wishing him and his harm some even going so far as to
threaten death on him. This is what I take issue with because they are sports
stars dose not mean that they deserve to be berated for what they do on the
field. Ultimately it is just a game and we as fans need to realize that. Yes we
all enjoy feeling like a part of the team. Feeling as if the 49ers really are
our team. We criticize the coaches and owners as if we really have a financial
steak in the team. But at the end of the day it is just a game folks you win
some you lose some. Now if you gamble and lose that is your own fault for putting
your hard earned money in the hands of a bookie. Don’t blame the Athletes they
have it hard enough knowing that they may have cost their teammates a game or a
championship. They need our support as sports fane and let them know that
although they made huge mistakes they are human and entitled to make mistakes and
we will forgive them because there will always be a next year and there will
always a chance to have a story for redemption…..
That
is all for today kids remember when you find yourself in that type of
adversity. Take the high road because the low road is full of very unscrupulous
people who will do anything to climb on top and have their 15 mins. Be
aware..till then Class is Dismissed….
