You often hear TV or radio analysts talk about how sportsmanship is dead, and how there are no good role models left in sports, and in all honestly I have definitely been a part of this group, however, last weekend I found what I think may be the best place for children to find role models. It was the X-Games. It's somewhat ironic that these sports which are usually seen as immature or rebellious actually bring us the best role models.
After every run taken by one of this unbelievably skilled athletes is ended with their competitors hugging or high five-ing congratulating each other on a great run. It honestly has become a sport where people honestly want to see each other succeed and continue to take new steps in improving the sport.
So my tip would be next tim you are looking for something to watch on TV, dont just pass by the extreme sports, take a watch, get to know the athletes!!
