Right. Tiger didn't suffer any consequences from his repeated adultery. It isn't like he lost $100 million or got divorced or lost most of his endorsements or ruined his social image or became a part time parent of his children or suffered through his worst season as a professional. Oh wait. Iran isn't the only country with Sharia law or a version of it. Committing adultery in many countries is a serious offense.
But, regardless, even in secular countries like this one, there are always consequences. If I did it, I could lose my marriage, half the custody of my children, half of everything I own, and the respect of everyone close to me. Personally, I would rather do jail time.
Other than that, you are right; nothing bad happens to adulterers. We practically sit around and applaud them, buy them drinks- GREAT JOB, MAN! PROUD OF YOU!- HAHAHAHAHA!!!!
Of course, in your scenario, you seemed to be specifically targeting the rich- "country clubs... boardrooms." I don't know if that means only the rich commit adultery or only the rich don't care. Both are equally preposterous so... I guess it doesn't matter. Maybe you were just watching Mad Men at the time.
Baseball players in the minors are not rookies. You don't become a rookie until you make the team. Rookies in any sport rarely quit. Any athlete quitting DURING a season is extremely frowned upon. It also irks me when a coach does the same, which is becoming more prevalent.
No one wants to see anyone hurt themselves, but like I said before, quitting isn't being made any more difficult. Simply walk up to the crew and quit. If not getting a jury vote is going to stop you from quitting, then apparently you don't want to quit that bad. And like what you said about quitting, if someone really wants to hurt themselves, they'll find a reason why.
Ian we'll just forever disagree about. Props to him.
"politically correct sick world" - now there's something we can agree on.
