Second chances

SPORTING GOODS

To be sure, kids sometimes screw up, but sometimes they learn their lesson and earn a second chance. Arkansas' prep footballer Thamail Morgan may be one such kid. At any rate, he demonstrated a kind of sportsmanship that his school can be proud of. May he stay on the straight and narrow.

On the other hand, I don't feel quite as good about a recent somewhat comparable local episode.

UPDATE - Jim Bransfield of the Middletown Press has a very late coda to the East Haven story.
