(907 posts)24. Thank you for the two references.
         
  
Regarding Real Sports: Unfortunately, I and my wife no longer subscribe to a cable service; but I believe what you say about the program. I did a site search at the ESPN "Outside the Lines" webpage on "steubenville," among other items. They have had up-to-date reporting on that incident, including an article that points out the rape victim continues to undergo persecution to this very day. (Any comment about that, Poppy Harlow?) Excellent (the investigative reporting, that is).
Thanks, again.

        don't get me wrong- I get it. I caught a lot of that crap when I was younger, no question.

        Please forgive me for not writing a longer post.  I'm all pooped out from writing the last one.

        I'm not big on being a spectator vis a vis professional sports, I admit it.

        I actually considered deleting this post of mine (the one above) in its entirety.

        Real Sports and Outside the Lines absolutely address the "dark side"

        Please don't worry about your response not being as in-depth as you'd like it to be.

        In a sense, I'm indifferent to HS sports as long as players are held accountable . . .
