Allowing things to happen

 Recently there is a big stink over the high school ball player who injuried another after the play.

This has been going on for years. NFL, College, High School.

As usual, there is a group who wants accountibility and a group who wants forgiveness.

What about the people who condoned it, allowed it to happen and set back because of any number of reasons. Till finally they couldnt cover it any more.

Dont ruin my sons future, dont let a one time incident ruin a young persons life. At end of day, maybe those who are saying this, should have stepped up back, held some ownership and control of their players, children, staff, coaches and parents.

In my own time we had player who was about four years older than us, get picked up for DUI, his pusnishment was to run extra laps. That was it. he went on to become a lawyer and work for the County. As with then, he stayed  a POS. It showed and shows. 

While there are those that redeem themselves, their are others that never will. Everything is case by case. 

Maybe the answer lies in the different between potential vs how it affected people in real life.

Then again there are those that allowwed it to happen solely because it was funny, they are weak or because someone was good player.
