It is easy to be a sports “hater” in the current depressing atmosphere of distrust in almost all involved in the games we love.I certainly have been accused of the above attitude, and it’s not hard to get sucked into it. Players are using drugs to enhance their abilities and reaping benefits in the millions of dollars, and owners are threatening to move franchises for various dollar-and-cent reasons, all in a time when many are struggling to make minimum payments on credit cards and mortgages.

Former PCC basketball star Harold Cleveland has transferred to Wiley College in Marshall, Texas, after a turbulent season at Xavier University of Louisiana.

I was disheartened to learn of the “Vote of No Confidence’ orchestrated by some members of the Division of Kinesiology, Health & Athletics (KH&A) against Interim Dean Beverly Tate.

To put it plainly and to the point…PCC does not have a true Veteran’s Affairs office. As a Vietnam veteran, I attend PCC and plan to transfer to a university, but with no veteran’s affairs help. The staff were totally unhelpful, none were veterans. The problems of veterans are more understood by other veterans rather than the regular society.
