I gotta agree with the sentiment. A lot of the time I like to see guys who transfer out finish their career strong. But I will never understand quitting on a team mid year, especially after opting out last year. Truth be told, I don't understand the mentality of any opt out, especially in college. (I ran collegiately cross country and track) the sports were life, and many times more important than the rest of the 'college experience'. You couldn't get me to walk away from my team or sport, even continuing to run my final season while student teaching and living at home, and training alone, only returning to campus for the weekends races and invites. All that said, I don't wish any ill will, but he isn't someone I care to actively root for post SU career.
I respect that brother
I've heard people say that Jim Brown hit like a freight train.
Agree. Of the 3, that's the only one that bothered me.
Barry Sanders too. A different kind of hard.
No one really cares. It's like all the people they say thoughts & prayers about everything and don't really do either of those things. We're just all robots that say things we think we are supposed to say without any meaning behind them.
I agree we often take fan stuff, and sports in general, too seriously. There are two sides to this stuff, however. We watch the team he plays for, but the only reason the team or the players are relevant beyond that of playing just for fun is because lots of people watch. Without fans/viewers, there are no scholarships, no NIL, and no pro leagues to aspire to.
Let’s not forget our own Larry Csonka; he was a load.
I said that to put it in perpective.We don’t have to be angry. Especially if we don’t know all the details. Howard’s actions have no direct effect on my life.
Is this like, your version of when I say I don't understand what everyone is getting worked up about, because we're still all going to die some day?
