Letter to the Editor

If I were a professional athlete, I would lock myself in a padded room to protect myself from all of the stupid decisions I could make with that money.--fragnoli via SportingNews.com

Ben Roethlisberger should feel a responsibility to not do anything stupid to jeopardize his career. The Steelers pay him a lot of money and in return expect him to be available to play. Oldsters like me don't tell these kids to wear a helmet for our health. Wise up, kid.--Pat Gibson, Millsboro, Del.

Maybe J.J. Redick was just trying to give himself some street cred. I bet the Blazers and the Knicks are falling all over themselves trying to line up Redick. The Knicks could trade every future draft pick they will ever get to the Raps and take J.J. No. 1 overall. Don't laugh--with the Knicks' crack management team, it could happen.--rod hard via SportingNews.com

I read with a huge smile Tricia Garner's article about little league baseball (SN, June 16). Her take is dead-on, and every coach I know has shared the same experience. In fact, I think I have at least three Kevins on my own team!--Neal Bagshaw, Chester, Va.

Your reasoning behind the Patriots' grade in your offseason report card (SN, June 16) had me scratching my head. The Patriots have been the dominant team in the NFL for a reason: They don't overpay.--Tim Farrell, Dorchester, Mass.

My friends and I were cruising along I-69 when we saw a Vette with a Detroit Tigers license plate. I grabbed my Sporting News and read through the Tigers story again (SN, June 16)--that Vette was the writer's car! We slowed down and tried to get Steven Losey to stop. I rolled down the window, showed him the magazine and shouted, "Pull over; we want to talk to you!" Steven pulled over and signed my copy. We talked for a few minutes and took pictures of him and the plate. Pretty cool!--Rick Heitmeyer, Sheridan, Mich.
