In front of his parents, Erik acts like the perfect kind person, when really, he’s a horrible person that fights with people, robs houses, and whose personality is a turn off to everybody.

Role Models “You can hate if you want to, you can hate me if you want to but I love me some me” for all of you non- ESPN junkies like myself or frequent Monday night football viewers the quote may mean nothing to you but the words of a self- centered and cocky individual and you know what… you’re right, but in the sports world this outburst is known as the epic rant Terrell Owens barked towards a former teams fan base during a bitter rivalry game against the Philadelphia Eagles. I know Terrell Owens may not seem like the prototypical role model like let’s say a Sonia Sotomayor who blew the sexiest and racial doors right off the hinges by not only becoming a part of a select few women to hold a U.S Supreme court seat but becoming the first

If your standards are high as a coach, it sometimes takes a great deal of courage to maintain them, especially when opposing coaches are cheating to win games. Coaches will deliberately break rules and then rationalize their behavior by saying that their opponents all do it, so they must break the same rules to compete.
