Nick Davis 1/22/2013 Athletes Do What They Want Because We Want It? In his essay “We, the Public, Place the Best Athletes on Pedestals,” author William Moller discusses the problem of performance enhancing drugs in sports, arguing that, it is the public’s fault for holding the best athletes in such high regard. Moller begins the essay with some background information about going to a boarding school during his high school years and how difficult it was pulling two and sometimes three all-nighters in a row. He also discussed how in addition to tremendous amounts of school work, each student took part in competitive team sports and was also required to go to school on Saturdays. (Moller 545) The author lamented about the competitive nature of the students saying “everyone wanted that spot at the top of the class, and social life was rife with competition.” (Moller 545) Moller then tells of the time he snorted Ritalin given to him by a friend and that it helped him wake up and become more focused on his homework.
Since he was mostly raised by his mother and older sister, his father sent him to Texas A&M university to ‘make a man’ out of him. Mills was not fond of this, but it influenced him and helped set his ideals and beliefs. While in college, C. Wright Mills was indoctrinated to life as a young freshman in a harsh manner.

Dr. Samuel mentions examples of success oriented narcissism on his experience in life with his friends. When they try to avoid him because they realized that could not control him anymore. All of this examples and descriptions of extremes narcissism that Dr Samuel describes on his articles are helpful to have an idea of narcissism. In my opinion, based on the article and video by Dr. Sam narcissism personality disorder is a mental disorder in which people have an exaggerated sense of their own important and a deep need for admiration. This behavior starts on his or her childhood, and they emotionally stuck at the time of his major trauma.
Readers can assume that despite Sykes ugly behavior throughout the stories, there was a beautiful courtship between him and his significant other that she and others could have presumed as ‘love’. Margaret Atwood’s approach on an artificial love in “Happy Endings” was similar to Hurston’s. In story B of this short story Atwood states that “He [John] comes to her apartment twice a week and she cooks him dinner, you’ll notice that he doesn’t even consider her worth the price of a dinner out, and after he’s eaten the dinner he fucks her and after that he falls asleep…” John’s mistreatment of his lover is appalling but he didn’t ‘catch the bee with vinegar’.
