Lebron giving advice to Terrelle Pryor . . . part of what is wrong in sports today.

Did anyone else read this story from ESPN and think, "This is what is wrong with sports today"? I read this article and I'm thinking, okay LeBron, we get it, you're a 24 year old celeb/superstar. You may have some advice about handling the spotlight at a young age but how are you qualified to handle the deserved negative press that Pryor is receiving? You've had NO real negative press, EVER. Not to mention the fact that Pryor isn't even nearly as talented as you in his respective sport. It would be like Michael Jordan giving me pointers about how to run my projects. Yeah sure, he's a successful business mogul in addtion to his basketball skills, but how's he qualified to talk to me specifically about project management?

Also, WHY IN THE F#$K IS THIS ALL EVEN NECESSARY?!! Pryor is an adult and in college. He's also a college athlete that just happens to SUCK at his position. Guess what? The media and the fans are going to roast you, no matter who you are. Welcome to the rest of the world A-HOLE. If that's all the problems you have, I'll trade places with you TOMORROW! Deal with it and get on with life like the rest of us. I'm so sick of these pampered athletes and their whiny-@ss attitude. "Oh, whoa is me they're picking on me . . . waaaaaaaaah!" Cry me a f'n river. Yeah, I don't give a sh#t.

If I were Coach Tressel, here's what I'd be telling Pryor, "Look, how do you like catching passes, running punts and running kicks back? Because that's the only way you're ever going to see the field here at OSU since you absolutely suck in your decision making as a QB. Dude, we lost to f'n previously 1-5 Purdue because of your bonehead plays."

I had nothing against Pryor until I started reading stories like the one above. In fact, I LOVED when he spurned Michigan to opt for Ohio State because "your enemies' enemy is your friend," but now . . . I want this kid to fail miserably and I'm not ashamed to admit I'm going to REVEL in every minute of it.

Oh and to all those people that say, "They're only kids, you shouldn't be so harsh, we should protect them . . . . shouldn't boo them . . . . blah, blah, blah." Yeah, F you too. First, if you're 18 and in college you aren't a "kid" anymore. I've had to deal with much larger issues at 18 than people booing me on a football field. Second, the fact that even if they are considered "kids" is completely irrelevant. You chose to play big-time sports, you then also chose to pay the big-time price that goes along with that decision. If that means getting booed so be it. There are bigger issues out there than you getting booed and I don't need some jackass telling me, "Oh, don't do that, they're just kids." My response, "Yeah, why don't we just turn the scoreboards off and "everyone wins"? How about that A-hole?! Thanks for the 'advice,' now kindly STFU as I'll have no part in the wussification of America."
