        Perhaps, that is if you mean stereotype in this conext:

        Stereotypes are standardized and simplified conceptions of groups, based on some prior assumptions. A stereotype can be deemed 'positive', or 'negative'.
        And since there are plentiful examples of the behavior that I am using to form my opinions it is hardly the case that I am making things up from nothing. But I will grant that I painted with a very broad brush.


        How many professional athletes are there in the country? How many do the wrong thing? The high profile ones you read and hear about.
        Uh, which makes them exactly the ones that kids know about. That is unless they have some secret access to athletes and such.

        The media doesnt tell you about
        Ah yes, the evil libberul media.

          I guarantee you, his youngest know more than Palin...plus Obama wasn't a Constitutional Law Professor?

Us piece of sh-t conservatives will be more than happy to listen as long as we can figure out what the hell you are saying, Thank you

                Bill's not stereotyping - he's "profiling."

                It sounds to me like there's some petty jealousy against jocks. Those who can, do. Those who can't become, um, teachers? Or is that stereotyping? :)

                  Nope, just missing the point. Again.

                  As far as being jealous, perhaps. In high school I played baseball and tennis (JV and varsity). Failed to go on to to professional sports. High school and just after I came close to making the US Olympic Judo Team. One spot out. After being the AAU US champ in my weight division for 3 years that sort of hurt. So maybe.

                  So after having played sports and been fairly decent perhaps my low opinion is the result of the disappointment of knowing what they could be as role models and what they actually are.

                  But back on topic, I think that SP going to Faux News is awesome. I truly hope that this becomes the springboard for her to becoming the GOP candidate for President in 2012. Which could happen. Unless she quits that too.

                    Keep telling that to youselves, people...

                    As for "quiting"... If you pay attention to the facts behind why she stepped down, you wouldn't be able to put her down for doing it...

                    But the Libs don't really like to look at the facts now, do they...

                        All the Liberals I know are rooting for SP to run for Prez. Some even donate to her "campaign." She's not dumb but she continually demonstrates (to borrow from SciFi-land) "...a willing suspension of the truth."

                          You mean you didn't LISTEN to what she's said over and over again in interviews and in print??? Or do you just not believe her? OR haven't your regular news sources bothered to tell the people???

                          Start here... this guy does a nice job of explaining it. Pretty much echos what she has said in interviews...

                            I come from the opposite angle. I enjoyed weight lifting when I was younger, but had no real sports skills. So I can truly appreciate what some of these "athletes" can accomplish. I look at the jerks as jerks. Just about the same way I look at our Presidents that promise the world and do the opposite.

                            Back on topic. Remember the left keeps saying that Fox is just entertainment. So what even talk about entertainment you don't like?

                              Ok. That's closer to what I've been reading. That there was this one idiot who kept making frivolous, petty charges against her. Plus the media had too much focus on her personal life. Rather than wasting tax payers money in defending against these accusations, she resigned.

                                And her state seems to be better off because of it... so I don't see what the issue is...

                                More politicians should follow that example...

                                I can provide a list of those that immediately come to mind if needed...
