    He is a very good example why celebrities shouldn’t be worshipped. Yes they are often very good, world class, at some thing. But only that one thing. They may be shit at everything else, including being a decent human being. Enjoy what talent they share - a great goal scorer is a great goal scorer - but don’t ascribe more to them than that. They can’t topple off a pedestal if you don’t put them up there to begin with.

    Whoops, meant this to be a reply to the CTE comment.

    This seems to sum it up; from one of the images in the article:

    Wayne Gretzky has faced criticism recently for his ties to Donald Trump. The NHL great has publicly supported the U.S. president and visited him several times in recent months at his Mar-a-Lago resort in Palm Beach, Fla.
