Well, on one hand, I really wish MJ hadn't had an affair. He's a very public figure and he's idolized by thousands and thousands of young children. Hell, probably about 95% of the current players in the NBA grew up wanting to be like Mike.

On the other hand, MJ's business is MJ's business. It's unfortunate that celebrities lose all of their privacy. Not that I'm condoning such behavior, but there are a whole lot of people out in the world who are having extramarital affairs. But because MJ is famous, we have to air his dirty laundry to sell newspapers and get TV ratings.
I agree, that I feel bad that celebrities loss their privacy, but still, as a Christian I don't condone what he did, and I lost some respect for him! I think it's unfortuniate, but it may have happened. The reason that I'm kinda disgusted is as before I'm a Christian & don't approve of such behavior, but also, as you said, MJ is 1 of the biggest role models in sports history and he should be setting a good example! I know men who are faithful only to their wives, so it can be done. And I know when you're on the road & you've got all these women wanting you that it's hard to say no. But, you can still be a man & say no!
