Sportsmanship

If you're not a sports fan -- or even if you are -- you may have missed this story about how the members of the opposing team carried the young woman who had just hit the only homerun of her career around the bases after she blew out a knee ligament running the bases. It ended up not being the deciding run of the game, but it could have been.

But we aren't reading about it because the one woman hit a home run. We're reading about it because of the other two. And especially because the one who thought of it doesn't think she did anything special. Which she did and didn't. Odd that sportsmanship has become so rare in sports.
