Patrick Kane


Athletics and sex have been bumping into each another since the first Olympics, if not before.  The same holds true for athletics and coerced sex.

And now Patrick Kane finds himself in trouble with a young woman who has filed a complaint with police in suburban Buffalo that may lead to rape charges; we all went over the particulars of the case on the drive to Nappanee.  If there’s a trial, none of us wants to be on the jury.  

I also think Hamburg, New York, isn’t ancient Greece, and the sense of entitlement that comes from winning doesn’t count for as much as it used to.  However the Kane situation is resolved, athletes need to figure this out, the sooner the better.
