Athletes in our society have become role models and very influential figures. I feel that if the media is going to cover them so much, that they should be able to use the media to make statements and let their voices be heard. Not all of us will agree with these statements, but they have every right to make them. I do agree with Jordan however, that these statements need to be educated because these athletes are role models and people do listen.

I too agree with this comment. I think athletes should be encouraged to voice their opinions. Sometimes staying quiet is almost a sign that you sdon't care and you definatley dont want people thinking atheltes don't care about what is goin on in our world. truth is a lot of good comes out of athletes standing up for things and voicing their opinions.. and for those who sound rediculous we as viewers should recognize this and ignore it.
