Uproar from Southeast Missouri Writer

In the United States we have many freedoms. One is the Right to Free Speech which from blogs, newspapers, speak-out columns, etc., this right is taken advantage of all the time. We have people from all different Political parties that participate and want their opinion to be heard, no matter how wrong or how right they may be.

My blog today deals with a small city (population of 35,000) that has a blog going from their website. My disgust starts with one of their writers, Mike Mitchell, who basically supplies sports information and blog topics. Unfortunately, one of his topics related to sports became political, and he outlashed at me for my political views. His statement was that people want to talk about sports and leave political views out of it. With this day and age, separating sports and politics cannot be done.

Liberals have made it were everyone, and I do mean EVERYONE, receives trophies, in Little League games, the score is not kept because there should be no Losers. Only Winners. What is happening to America, what are we teaching our children, our neighbor's children? Mediocricy is o.k.? Unfortunately in life, their are winners and there are losers, and no matter what this is how it will always be. Survival of the fittest is the name of the game in life and should be in sports.

If you agree with me, I urge you to visit the sports blogs at www.semissourian.com/blogs and voice your political views pertaining to sports and give 'em hell.

You've got to understand, they have a job to do and do not like always being shown up. That's the way life is, people want to be smart, funny and witty and anyone who comes in and challenges their way of thinking is seen as a threat.

I agree with you completely, I just find it funny that people have a bias for their own writings, much as I do. Hopefully Mitchell will realize that it is impossible to separate sports and politics.

Sports need to be separated from Politics, I think the point is, when it is a blog for sports, leave it for sports and forget about politics

Rodney, you are exactly 100% correct. You just made the point that I was trying, thank you!

Politics have become a way of everyday life. Our society has changed, it is no longer separation between politics, sports, etc.

The way life is, not everyone can always be winners, there will be times that those winners will face defeat. It is Life, guaranteed.

Excellent post Rodney!

as long as siegelman gets 5 yrs minimum and hamrick is indicted in phase 2 and then convicted. then blount, joe perkins and elmer harris and jack miller and other thieves are convicted. only then will the dixie mafia be on notice that the rents in alabama are too expensive. I hope Shelby would actually help the FBI this.
