The Problem With Professional Sports

CEDAR CITY, Utah -- Some get into the professionals for the fame, some for the love of the game and others strictly for the fortune. My biggest concern is how they get to these that affects the integrity of the game. I personally love players that perform day in and day out because that is their  passion and everything else in secondary. The problem with professional sports today is the use of illegal performing enhancing drugs. We have these athletes that take these drug in order to run faster, jump higher, hit harder.

Players are being more focused on their personal brand and acting like they're bigger then the team itself. When players are offered a big contract it seems as their performances go down. Once they signed the big check, they seem to coast through the rest of their careers.

Then of course we have the athletes who play the game till the very end with passion, influence the game off the field. These players like Lebron James for example have the mental ability and confidence to maintain at top level and let money affect how they play or when they play. If Kevin Durant were to take a minor pay cut to his current contract he wouldn't be sitting out to get more money he would still want to win that championship.

Currently we have players that are sitting out of the NFL because they want a lot of money, yeah maybe they deserve it but if they really loved playing the game they physically shouldn't be able to stay away for so long.

Learn to Taco About It

  Learn To Create Simple Delicious Tacos One Taco Night - It began as a normal night in Mareno Valley California, with nine of us arguing about what we should have for dinner.

A pack of yellow organic tortillas, staring at me right in the face. I just smiled back, as ideas began turning in my head.

Let's Taco It Down South

Tacos From the South -- They say that the closer you get to the boarder down south the better the food tastes. I would agree, the ingredients carry more of a natural aspect about it that hasn't been manipulated. Most of the peppers as picked right from the backyard and put straight into the salsas. This will carry into the topic I want to discuss today which is the Mania of tacos from Mexico. The Rule of Three - Just like the mariachi bands that usually come in three, when you order tacos in mexico you usually order them in 3's. For starters it makes the taqueros job easier and secondly you fight the temptation of eating more then you have to. Needless to say if you look at the taco belly's of many Mexicans its safe to say that 3 rule doesn't work. The primary reason that tacos in Mexico traditionally come in threes is because of the size of tacos. Unlike tacos you see in the states, Mexican streets tacos come in smaller size tortillas so it makes it tough t...
