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.

Summary/Reflection

Alex Schwazer from Italy won the gold medal for speed walking in the Olympics. He took a world record time and he was joyful when he had finally finished the race and won first place. However, he was caught using drugs to enhance his performance and ended up being banned. He gave a lengthy, tear-filled press conference saying he was happy to have been caught.

 

I think that Alex is not a good person. He chose the wrong and decided to cheat and win the race through other means instead of being fair. He knew what he had done and like it said, he was happy he was caught because he was feeling so guilty of what he had done and his conscious had been eaten up by his guilt. He is an example of what can happen to you if you choose the wrong and don’t play by the rules.
