Our Kids Get No Information in Baltimore

Yes, I feel sorry for kids too. A reporter on today’s sports reporters’ show on ESPM lamented “School kids will never see the end of a World Series game”. Yes, I feel sorry because our kids, especially in Baltimore, Maryland USA will never obtain “news” or in today’s lingo information like we did. Sure the Baltimore Sun had a slant but the Morning Sun was different from the evening SUN and both different from the Baltimore News American. That’s what I had along with the very important Afro-American I w had access imprint of a lot of information daily and weekly.

Today the voices are fewer and so to are there now fewer opinions which is really dangerous. Where do you get your reliable information from today? Television? Ha! Radio?  In sixty second staccato bursts? The Internet or wherever your homepage or facebook page leads you. Most would be amazed after e review of their personal browser history for both work and personal enlightenment. What you would mostly see is a list of the same web addresses repeated over Andover. What a paradox with more info available we begin to rely on less.

Take the sports world. Who would be more credible? A newspaper that had a reporter at the game and in the locker-room or an announcer describing highlights on camera or on the web?

In Baltimore we must now decide daily whether to buy any newspaper at all and if we do decide to purchase, we must decide between the Baltimore Sun and the Washington Post which both now cost the same in Baltimore. I have no real bias having worked as a news reporter for both papers. But I grew up in and now reside in Baltimore and want to know what is going on here. I now get the Twitter feed from the Baltimore City Police Department in real time to my phone. Now I know when someone gets shot around the corner from me in real time. We have a lot of shootings here.

 

PS Please stop all this Anquan Boldin to the Ravens talk. The Ravens in offseason do not deserve two thirds of the Sun Sports page today. Should have bought the Post today.

Come to NFLPA Retired Convention Fees Waived This Year

Dear Fellow NFLPA Members:

 

The NFLPA realizes the challenges of the current economy and at the suggestion of the Steering Committee has agreed to waive the convention registration fee for any NFLPA member (and wife/significant other) to attend this year’s event in Palm Springs, a savings of up to $300/couple.

 

In addition, members who attend the event are ‘comped’ their NFLPA membership dues for one year, an additional savings of $100!

 

It promises to be a great occasion and this will be your first opportunity to meet new NFLPA Executive Director DeMaurice Smith who has indicated that he will be in attendance and wants to meet with as many retired players as possible.

 

Events include two half-day general sessions with informative and entertaining speakers, a convention golf tournament, ladies breakfast, wives meeting, two parties and a community service event.  Breakfast is served each day.  Attendees will also receive a $25 hotel gift card to be used at the hotel outlets or upon checkout against your hotel bill.

 

We hope this encourages you to attend this important event.  Please mail or fax your convention registration form to the NFLPA office as soon as possible as rooms need to be reserved by April 21.  If you need a copy of the registration form, it can be found as an attachment to this email.

 

Sincerely,

 

Jean Fugett, President
