Josh freaking Hamilton - everyone's hero

This has always been one of my biggest irritations in life.  Let me get this straight.  I need to do a bunch of hard drugs and drink heavily, ruin my life, and then stop and I am a GREAT story.  Really?  REALLY?!  Doesn't ANYONE see the flaw in that logic?  How about we celebrate NOT ever going down that road and just being normal to begin with?  So I am going to go out, buy an 8 ball of coke, get some rock...snort and smoke it up daily for a year and then quit and go back to work.  Will everyone think I am a GREAT story or a degenerate?  I guess if I played that baseball sport, I would be God's gift to humans.  I just can't comprehend it.  Every time I hear someone say on TV or anywhere how he is a GREAT story, I want to vomit.  He's a great baseball player...but don't ever try to convince me how great of a story/human he is because people like Albert Pujols and Derek Jeter are able to be great players and did not need to throw their lives in the gutter first to do it.
