SnS a double standard

SnS is the them of the day sports and scandal Reggie Bush returned his Heisman trophy       ad mist the shame of being paid under the table for playing football. With a catch he is doing that now collegiate athletes don't look for a hand out but get it there is always some slick talking ball hanger looking for a easy pay day. Some athletes feel it's common to get cash what's wrong with taking, accepting money for a sport played on Saturday instead of  Sunday we have fans, shoe deals and television contracts there is a free education which could guarantee you a job.

 

 If the money is put to good use and the gifts as well no harm, there are some haters out there who like to extort once you pay them back and feel you owe theme more. Your name sells period people want you to appear here or endorse this cause you are a walking billboard. Economic hardship could result in more scandals as talented students feel the television networks and shoe companies are paying someone why not me.

 

 Could there be a double standard for women sports?, when is there scandal or sanctions handed down almost never, how does a male conduct himself in a female locker or is he just a reporter as a female would be in a male locker room.  Protocol or standard in sports has many tradition seen as indifferent woman fighting is seen as brutality or in poor taste followed by vulgar language but the norm in male sports. Women basketball and fast pitch baseball players are not integrate into professional mens leagues but set aside.

Coaching men's sports is about the alpha male syndrome a dominate figure head who leads with character Coolidge high school of (Washington, dc) hired the first female football coach seeing something more than that a coach a true leader regardless of gender. Athletics will always have a difference of opinion women have made great strides in sports and deserve equality to be treated like one of the guys but out of respect you can't cause there is a code of  conduct not to say a woman can't coach men or vice versa it has a grey area. Touching, language content so fourth with tolerance comes example women should be able to compete in the male sport of there choice.
