    How Youth Sports Boost Mental Health in Adulthood
    Jul 16 2024

    A recent study conducted at Ohio State University has discovered a link between participation in youth sports and improved mental health in adulthood. This finding isn't surprising; being part of a team helps children develop a sense of value and boosts their self-worth. Therefore, I encourage my listeners to enroll their children in a team sport as soon as possible—your child will thank you in the future.

  • Bill Shields NCAA Strips Athletes of Employee Status

    Bill Shields NCAA Strips Athletes of Employee Status
    Jul 9 2024


    A bill progressing through Congress aims to prevent colleges from classifying athletes as employees. Political motives rather than moral ones drive this move: the NCAA has historically not provided health insurance for athletes, so there's no reason to believe they will start now. Claiming that the bill serves any purpose other than safeguarding the NCAA's financial interests is naive.

    We all know that baseball was segregated decades ago, but the discrimination went even deeper: skin color influenced the positions players were allowed to play, and coaches were predominantly white. Reflecting on these past injustices highlights the importance of recognizing how much progress has been made.

    D-Day America’s Battle to End Fascism
    Jun 26 2024


    Eighty years ago, soldiers from Canada, the United Kingdom, and the United States fought at Normandy to stop the spread of fascism. While many of these brave individuals sacrificed their lives, their courage stands as a powerful reminder of the importance of fighting for the needs of others, not just our own.

    The heavy casualties endured by the Allies at Normandy highlight the profound reality of true loss and the cost of preserving freedom.

  • The Dangers of Legalizing Betting on Elections

    The Dangers of Legalizing Betting on Elections
    Jun 18 2024

    In today's climate of political turmoil, the idea of allowing betting on elections is deeply concerning. Such a practice could undermine the credibility of our democratic processes by fostering false allegations of election fixing and potentially opening the door to actual corruption. Moreover, it could exacerbate the problem of gambling addiction.

    It's crucial that we take action. I urge my listeners to contact their representatives in Congress and express their opposition to the legalization of election betting in any form in the United States. Let's work together to protect the integrity of our elections and the well-being of our communities.

    The Importance of the Black Sox Scandal Punishment
    Jun 11 2024

    The Black Sox Scandal involved a gambling addict enlisting eight Chicago White Sox players to conspire with gangster Arnold Rothstein. This historical event underscores why Commissioner Manfred's decision to impose a lifetime ban on Tucupita Marcano is justified. If such corruption happened once, it can happen again.
