Abstract
Throughout the history of sports, athletes have been looked upon as heroes. The idolatry of athletics in America has been socially constructed. Adolescents often dream about one day becoming a professional athlete. Athletes are viewed as having the best of both worlds: play the game they love and getting paid large amounts of money for doing it. The path many athletes often undergo to achieve professional success is never easy. The choices they make along the way are the ones that establish them as a hero.
