Sound Off for October 1, 2017

Refreshing change of tone

After all the negative press about athletes lately, the video of Cubs shortstop Addison Russell delivering nachos to the fan whose nachos he knocked away while chasing a foul ball is truly touching. Thanks, Addison!

Desperate times, desperate measures

Teresa, if you’re reading this, it’s time for curfews and to call in the National Guard.

Relief efforts

Wonder if any of Trump’s organizations made donations to Puerto Rico. Heck, for that matter, has he donated to victims of Harvey and Irma?

Public skin in the game

Unlike teachers, NFL players aren't paid with taxpayer money. But practically every one of those stadiums they're kneeling in is.

Travel ‘ban’ is on us

President Trump: Due to your underwhelming personality, most Americans are no longer welcome in our former allies' countries. That leaves us with Israel. No thanks.

More apprehension than hope

Whenever I read that the Columbus Planning Department is planning on "improvements" or modifications, I cringe with fear anticipating the horrors that they propose to inflict upon the citizen of Columbus.

Inspiring freedom of expression

Having denied teams the opportunity to honor fallen Dallas policemen, Pat Tillman, 9-11 and others with emblems on their helmets, the NFL allowed Mr. Beckham to celebrate a touchdown by acting like a dog micturating.

For the record:

Bill O’Reilly is a pompous brat.
