Great point. There is enough influences on young people already. All of us need to set the highest possible examples.
I am assigning this year at the college level. Any of the people that work games for me have personal legal problems borne from poor judgment and they are done. I dropped 4 from the inherited roster based on this. I have also asked them to not be seen drinking any alcohol anywhere in the towns they work in after games. Character and its perception is of paramout importance in our business.
It is more important by an order of magnitude for coaches and school administrators.
