    Too Much Exposure: Unstoppable Torture The environment is where crowding among different persons takes place. It has an enormous factor on the development of an individual‚ most especially‚ human behavior. With those interactions‚ experiences are gathered for learnings to emerge. I agree with B.f.

    now an all year type of thing‚ a famous quote said i“there is no off-season”. Athletes are being pushed to be in one sport all year long‚ instead of multiple sports per year.

    Should College Athletes be Paid? Imagine what would happen if we would pay the college athletes for performing. It would be a disaster because that is all they would do‚ they would only play for the money. Most of the athletes wouldn’t play for the fun of the game‚ or the fame that comes with playing‚ they would just worry about the paycheck that comes with playing.
