Putting Sports in Perspective

This is a truly unbelievable story! I was surprised when I checked ESPN.com tonight and saw University of Tennessee basketball star Chris Lofton on the home page. The story that follows is amazing. The call-in shows did indeed light up with callers talking about Lofton's "slump" this past year. The reason behind it puts everything in perspective. Whether you are a Tennessee fan or not - or even a basketball fan - this is worth a read.

More from the Chattanooga Free-Press.

I read that story too! Hard to believe he could go through all that without anyone finding out. What a tough kid. Speaks volumes for his character, hoping he gets drafted. the NBA could use some good people like him.
