ESPN Highlights Hines Ward and Korea

I am sitting here watching the pre-game show on ESPN for the Pittsburgh Steelers versus Philadelphia Eagles game and ESPN announcer Stuart Scott just had a segment on Hines Ward and his visit to Korea which was interesting.  Hines Ward said he found the media coverage in Korea excessive when he visited the country.  He said it was like the pictures you see of the crowds following Tiger Woods around a golf course times 10 everywhere he went.  Then Stuart Scott starting talking about how Ward’s visit caused many editorials against discrimination in Korea and the government to propose anti-discrimination laws.  However, Scott made sure to point out that the Korean government has yet to pass any anti-discrimination laws.  I wouldn’t count on it happening any time soon either.

On a unrelated note, thank God it is football season again.
