Dark Side Of Sports (Hector)

 

What role do athletes play in our society? Should they be role models? What happens to their fans when these role models cheat, commit crimes, etc.?

What role do athletes play in our society, should we consider them role models what happens to their fans if they cheat, commit crimes, etc.?

          My opinion is that athletes play a big role in our society because a lot of people watch sports so a lot of people consider them a big part in their life’s. I think that when athletes cheat it really affects there life because maybe those people have been watching them play since they were little and when they see that their role model has done something wrong they feel like their role models have left them down. Maybe it will really affect their life’s so much that they might even stop watch them play or quite their sport they play.  When they cheat they feel like they let them down. When they commit crimes they feel like they have been looking up to the wrong person their whole life and might even kill their dream of becoming like that kind of athlete. Like my role model is Lionel Messi a soccer player that plays with FC Barcelona, he didn’t pay his taxed and that kind of effected me but I didn’t let  my dream down.
