On The Bench!
New Year's Eve. 2021, being the average sports fan /enthusiast that I am, I can't help but wonder and imagine what the upcoming year will bring to the sports world. Over the years I've come to realize nothing is off the table. There is always something or someone to be placed under a microscope. There is always a year-round opportunity for professional athletes to be ridiculed and rattled off their high horses. The media more so takes this underhanded responsibility in full stride. I can always depend on sports networks and so-called sports analysts, to be my first, immediate source for the latest foolery and gossip in sports. Now a day, it does not even matter if the news is true are not. Sadly our society could probably care less. All most of us Die Hard sports heads want is action. To see our favorite players cause havoc! On the field of their craft or course. What's more exciting than seeing K.D. drop 50 with a game-winning 3 point buzzer-beater. Or What could top watching a 50- year old winning the Super Bowl. For me not a lot. The last couple of years has had a major effect on the sporting nation. The introduction of the coronavirus has been sudden and impactful. This non-discriminating germ has sat on every bench in the N.B.A., found its way in N.F.L. locker rooms, and so on. How could anyone think a billion-dollar industry would be exempt from the pandemonium of this so-called pandemic.

My Sports Heroes - (Borje Salming)
Dear Borje Salming, Thank you for being a hero of mine. I admire your courage and work ethic. You have inspired me to be a better 'me' and to be more diligent in my training for sports and for life. You are from a community and a family that definitely knows the meaning and importance of hard work. I understand how difficult it must have been for you to lose your father at such a young age. My father also died suddenly when I was nine years old. You persevered however, and became arguably the best player to have ever played for the Toronto Maple Leafs, and certainly one of the best in the league. That is a testament to your determination and inner strength. I have learned a lot from your story.
