Summary/Reflection

Tony Farmer was one of the most highly-recruited high school players in Ohio, fainted in court when he heard he was given a 3 year prison sentence. Tony had kidnapped his girlfriend, stole a credit card, and sent faulty text messages. Everything he did made him go to court and have this prison sentence.

I think that Tony wasn’t very smart to do what he did. He kidnapped his girlfriend, which in the first place you shouldn’t be doing. You should be treating women with respect and care not kidnapping them. The fact that he stole the credit card and sent faulty text messaged added to his prison sentence. He should have thought what the consequences would have been before he had even started. This way he would have seen what would have happened and he would have been fine. Think before you act.

Marion Jones was a part of the Olympic team and had a great future. She had won 3 gold medals and 2 bronze medals. Yet everything turned upside down when she cheated for using drugs to enhance her performance. She lied to the officials and she got caught. She was then stripped of her medals and sent to prison for 6 months.

 

I think that Marion shouldn’t have cheated. She knew that she was doing wrong things and she knew what she was getting herself into. She was choosing the wrong the entire time she took those drugs. It’s that same thing as if cheating in a video game or cheating at school. You might feel great and on top of the world, but as soon as you get caught everything comes crashing down. The bigger you are when you cheat, the harder you will fall.
