A certain NBA player recently lost his temper and punched his hand through glass. Not only was his actions stupid and irrational, but he is now on the injured list and unable to play in the most important games of the season. I can't rationalize why he put his hand through the glass...win or lose, he still gets his millions of dollars. I've seen many athletes (pro and amateur) get knocked out in the ring or severely injured because they couldn't keep their emotions 'in check' during their specific activity or because they were simply poor sports.
Here's Your Healthy Tip of the Day: At the end of the day, being a poor sport not only exhibits stupidity and irrational behavior, but can be instrumental in a severe injury that can alter your career...whether you are a lawyer, doctor, athlete, or construction worker. Most of us do not earn millions of dollars like NBA players whether we win or lose, so don't follow one player's example of being a complete dummy.
