Dear Editor,
Listening to the recent injury report of young college sports stars made me very disgusted with how Americans accept this invasion of privacy.
No where else in society would we allow the medical records of anyone to be discussed openly without that person’s consent. The only reason this unlawful act happens is to allow the gamblers to fix the odds of winning to make more money off the wonderful players.
Is an athlete forced to sign away his right to privacy just because he wishes to play sports for a college? If they are not forced to sign a contract can this athlete bring a lawsuit for damages against anyone who would broadcast his medical records to the public?
