Rossputin.com Rational Thinking About Our World

As I was reading through the sports headlines on Yahoo news yesterday, I ran across these 4 headlines, which I've shortened, (out of the 5 headlines I was looking at):

Rape charges dropped in Duke case
Football player suspended for substance abuse
Football player gets home confinement for second gun law violation
Baseball player arrested for DUI
Hockey player suspended for blind-side punch to the head

I was going to write a story about the obvious trend in these headlines, even though that's probably an over-exploited subject and maybe not even very interesting anymore.

Instead, as I was digging around in sports news this morning, I came across something entirely different:

Teammates once, friends forever:
Everson Walls donating kidney to Ron Springs

It's a great story, especially for this time of year.

That said, it's still not enough to make this Redskins fan cheer for the Dallas Cowboys.
