What makes for a modern hero in sports? Pushing yourself to the next level on the field of competition? Determination and commitment? Acing your citizenship test?What makes a hero in sports today is what has always made a hero in sports or in any other human endeavor: grace, dignity, decency, and courage.

My disdain for consolidated radio ownership and having to listen to 20 minutes of commercials per hour led me several months ago to Des Moines' urban station 89.3 KJMC-FM, "The Heart and Soul of the City." My new job and longer morning commute also means I've had a chance to slowly absorb and come to appreciate "The Tom Joyner Morning Show." It's a program almost completely off the radar of white America, but one that's reaching a lot of hearts and souls across the nation. Check your local listings.

I couldn't tell you another damned thing about presidential candidate Mitt Romney but I can tell you he's a Mormon. Is that the best we can expect from our news media for insight? In 2008, it's the Mormon vs. the black man vs. the woman.
