It’s not difficult to understand our desire for athletes to be heroes. On the surface, at least, athletes display a vital and indomitable spirit; they are gloriously alive 62 their bodies. And sports do allow us to 63 acts that can legitimately be described as 64 , thrilling, beautiful, even noble. In a ( n ) 65 complicated and disorderly world, sports are still an arena in which we can regularly witness a certain kind of 66 .
Yet there’s something of a 67 here, for the very qualities a society 68 to seek in its heroes selflessness, 69 consciousness, and the like--are precisely the 70 of those which are needed to 71 a talented but otherwise unremarkable neighborhood kid into a Michael Jordan. To become a star athlete, you have to have an extremely competitive 72 and you have to be totally focused on the development of your own physical skills. These qualities 73 well make a great athlete, 74 they don’t necessarily make a great person.
On top of this, our society reinforces these 75 by the system it has created to produce athletes--a system characterized by 76 responsibility and enormous privilege.
The athletes themselves suffer the 77 of this system. Trained to measure themselves perpetually 78 the achievements of those around them, many young athletes develop a sense of sociologist Walter Schafer has 79 "conditional self-worth". They learn very quickly that they will be accepted by the important figures in their lives--parents, coaches and peers as long as they are 80 as "winner". Unfortunately they become 81 and behave as if their athletic success will last forever.
