    Default Re: Quick thinking Hero

    Saw this on the news now, and heard the speeches by the politicians. Which got me thinking....

    What is heroism? Isn't heroism defined as an action where you save/help others while endangering your own person? How can this man be a "hero" then? What he did was do a good job, but I can't honestly see how you can define it as heroism. He did what everyone else in his situation would have done/tried. What he did was a very good job. But I can't see how it was heroism. It was self-preservation.

    How can you be a hero when what you're doing is saving your own ?

    Still maintain that crying on the pitch should warrant a 3 match ban
