and you think athletes get special privileges

[SpeedofLeicht]

You never hear athletes complain when they go to jail and now Paris Hilton is complaining after barely a day in jail
Hollywood people get more "Special Privileges" than athletes and I never hear you people complain about them

First, I don't know if it's true that athletes don't complain. I can't remember any of them complaining but even if they did, how would we know? The news wouldn't carry it because no one cares about those jerks. They're about as useful --and disposable --as a kleenex.

People are sick of jocks and athletes and the special treatment they receive. I did a search on the special treatment of athletes and got over 10,000 pages of good material. I think we should open a whole new wing here at SportsSuck just to document the special treatment jocks receive. There is plenty of material to work with!

Thanks for the idea, speedo!

You know what? I think speed has a point here. We all have been argueing about all the special treatment that Athletes get and there are also many other people who do as well.

Well, given that the name of the website is SPORTS Suck...

The only point here is the one on top of your head.
There is no comparison in how celebrities and jocks are treated. Celebrities are rare --princes, movie producers, or models --one out of a million. Athletes are as common as dirt. Every high school has a large selection. Every third student is involved in some kind of physical sport. You can't swing a dead cat in high school without hitting a fuckin' football player!

So even if both sets (that means groups) of people received preferential treatment, because of their sheer numbers, jocks would, by far, receive the majority of the special treatment meted out.

So the problem is CLEARLY with the jocks.

It appears that someone needs to reacquaint themself with Article V of our manifesto. And the Pledge of Allegiance to the International I Hate Sports Club Confederation.
