Maybe you saw the clip of Knight playing to his crowd. Maybe you watched it with your son or your daughter. Hopefully, you helped explain another confusing moment for the impressionable. Knight is no hero, girls and boys. Heroes don't assault players or bully secretaries or perform any of the countless horrible acts of which Knight has been found guilty.
Heroes treat others with respect.
Heroes show compassion and contrition. Knight is no hero, no matter how many people showed up to bestow upon him rock-star status. Kids have it tough these days. They learn a value system at home and in school, learn the difference between right and wrong. Then they discover a sports world trying to tear those values apart.
