WHAT is all this secrecy? Why can’t people be more forthright and honest instead of not saying anything?
Was there a release or not? If there was, why was it not forwarded to the powers that be?
If there was none, why was there this social media post?
Why leave the public hanging and speculating with all the he said, he said? Is that proper public relations? Or are people simply hoping to keep quiet until the next scandal, problem, or concern crops up and people with short memories forget and shift their attention?
Why did this sports official ask a website that a story be taken down? Was it because the writer asked questions to why a certain team’s performance wasn’t so good?
Is it really “good vibes” stories he wants or is he trying to cover his ass because the people he chose for the job got their butts kicked? Why is this person even in that position? Pray tell, what has that person done to deserve it?
What is exactly going on between this boxer and his sports federation? A press release was sent out the other day by the federation talking about how this boxer is doing this and that but why am I told the hatchet has yet to be buried?
Whatever happened to that football team that never paid its players and had dubious owners? Why were they allowed to operate in the first place? How is pointing the problem out detrimental to the game?
If someone fooled you with your own pay won’t you raise a ruckus? Why is there a gag order on such? Why does it seem to be widespread? Does sweeping problems under the rug automatically make things go away?
Or did this play right into their hands so people forget the issue?
Why are players afraid to speak up?
Why is there a climate of fear everywhere? Why is there so much incompetence? Why is it so hard to do the right thing? Or is this the blindness that some men wish for?
Do we have a grading system for sports federations? Do they even have set objectives in a given year or during their tenure? If they do, can’t their grades be the determining factor if they can be accepting to sit in that position again? Why does it have to come from voting when cronies can be in position?
But the corollary to that is who grades them? Is it possible that the oversight committee can be biased for or prejudiced against officials? Can people actually be objective?
So what is the best way to sort out the gaggle of underperforming sports federations and overstaying characters who haven’t really done smack?
Why are basketball teams with dubious coaches and players allowed to operate? Does anyone vet them? Why cannot people tackle the issues of game fixing head on? Are people afraid? Who is being protected? Is the public continuously being taken for a ride?
Why is it that kissing ass gets you farther than actually doing good? What the heck are we teaching people (and now you wonder why this country is like this)?
Is nothing sacred?
When do people start getting real answers, honest to goodness change, and real results after what seems to be in an interminable amount of time?
I guess when all these things happen, people like me can stop asking questions. Or maybe not.
Wanna bet?

I’ll start the clean up (doing the right thing) with myself, then my family (spouse and children), then my relatives and friends, my neighbors, community, and so on depending on what I am capable given my personal situation. Real change to start from within then out. Good people has to start this movement from within then out. Good people, particularly those who’ve been enlightened, those who discovered the way, should not be selfish but share the good news with those in the dark. While knowing is key part of the puzzle, acting on good ideas completes the puzzle. I’m encouraged to know there are still people like you Rick who truly cares and brave enough to ask those important questions and demands answers that truly make sense. More power, God bless!
