Hey did you know that there are some members of our school football team who strongly believe that they would have won more games if they had more money? Uh-uh guys, man makes the money, money does not make the man. While it’s true that better equipment would make a little difference, a greater impact would be made if you stop making excuses and focus on improving your game.

Now even though die-hard fans have mourned the loss of Roberts, I’m so sure that he, or Ricky Ray or anyone else that have garnered press attention is not the only valuable players worth mentioning. So, all you football players out there prove me right and show Sac State what you’re made of the next time around. But if you continue to keep that “if only we had more money” attitude, then prepare to face some serious rolling of the eyes from your columnists and more importantly, your fans.

Speaking of sports fans?

The girls on the gymnastics team have rarely had a hard time getting attention, but sometimes it’s for all the wrong reasons. Anyone present at previous meets can attest to that.

You know it must be very disconcerting for the parents of the gymnastic girls to hear pockets of their fellow spectators hooting and whistling at particular moments of a girl’s routine. Unfortunately there is usually some group of guys who ruins the event for everyone by acting like horny little idiots. Making primal mating calls during a routine cheapens the whole experience of attending this elitist sport. And did I mention extremely disrespectful?

The unwritten rule for gymnastics is that the audience should be silent until a gymnast is finished with their routine. Now even though some of the girls on the team may secretly enjoy the attention, there are more people surrounding you that don’t. Besides, the girls’ you’re hollering at can’t hear you anyway. They have to mentally block you out to focus on their performance. It’s not the job of the audience to block you out as well.
