1.  Footballer faces suspension after attack on spectator.

Favourable:  Well, that is right.  The footballers are so outrageous. They get angry so easily. They are sometimes rude.  They cannot attack on the spectators like that.
Against:  Sometime the spectators throw bottles and other things at the players.  They abuse them if they don't play well or don't score goals.  Players do as good as they can.  Spectators must enjoy game and then respect the players.  The spectator would have said something that enraged the player.

2.  World champion swimmer suspended after drug test.

Favourable:  
     What the games committee did is correct.  Sports persons should not take drugs.  If they do then the competition is not fair at all.  

unfavourable:  Sometimes there are some cheating people, make good sportsmen also to take in drugs unknowingly.  So sometimes it is not their fault. But they suffer. Some players want to win some bad way, that is not good.

3.  Own-goal defender shot dead outside restaurant.

   favourable:  Yeah! that's what happens in high stakes game like football.  It has become a risky game now.  Because of the defender's mistake, the club has lost the championship.  Now they have to wait for another four years for championship.  Probably the killers have lost their money in bets due to the loss in the game.

  against:   This is absolutely wrong.  The defender would have played in the best interest of the team.  Sometimes some mistakes happen.  They are not due to his lack of skills.  They just happen in sports.  So spectators should not take it so seriously to kill a player.  The team managers will take care of mistakes of the players.  The betting rackets are to be caught and prevented.

4. Tennis stars strike it rich on and off the court.

  Favourable:  Tennis stars make a lot of money.  Tennis is the game of rich people.  They enjoy the players playing the game at high standards.  So they enjoy it and pay a lot for it.  Well, lucky for them tennis is a game of the rich.  They earn a lot of money through publicity outside the court.

  against:  it is matter of jealousy.  The players from cricket and tennis make a lot of money.  Other games are also good.  You see athletics are so interesting.  Kabaddi is our game.  Still those players do not make a lot of money.  That is a pity.  Just by holding the racket and running around a little on the court, they earn a lot.  Highly unjust it is.
