It’s not difficult to understand our desire for athletes to be heroes. On the surface, at least, athletes display a vital and indomitable spirit; they are gloriously alive 62 their bodies. And sports do allow us to 63 acts that can legitimately be described as 64 , thrilling, beautiful, even noble. In a ( n ) 65 complicated and disorderly world, sports are still an arena in which we can regularly witness a certain kind of 66 .
Yet there’s something of a 67 here, for the very qualities a society 68 to seek in its heroes selflessness, 69 consciousness, and the like--are precisely the 70 of those which are needed to 71 a talented but otherwise unremarkable neighborhood kid into a Michael Jordan. To become a star athlete, you have to have an extremely competitive 72 and you have to be totally focused on the development of your own physical skills. These qualities 73 well make a great athlete, 74 they don’t necessarily make a great person.

The athletes themselves suffer the 77 of this system. Trained to measure themselves perpetually 78 the achievements of those around them, many young athletes develop a sense of sociologist Walter Schafer has 79 "conditional self-worth". They learn very quickly that they will be accepted by the important figures in their lives--parents, coaches and peers as long as they are 80 as "winner". Unfortunately they become 81 and behave as if their athletic success will last forever.
