There are many of you who are reading this and are familiar with Daniel Puder from his stint in the WWE where he won the 2004 Tough Enough competition and from his title as an Undefeated Mixed Martial Arts Fighter. That alone is impressive, but that wasn’t why I wanted to talk to Daniel; in fact in my conversation with Daniel, those topics were only a sidebar on the narrative.
What he is known for now in many communities across the United States is for his creation of a new program to confront the bullying problem that has plagued schools across the country. And, he is doing so in a ground breaking way by going after the problem at the source instead of just delivering speeches on the topic.

Owning this website allows me not only to interview athletes but debunk the myth that all athletes are just “dumb jocks”. Rules may be made to broken, but stereotypes are made to be shattered, and after speaking to multiple athletes from the NHL, MLB, NBA, and the WWE, I can say that unequivocally that some of the most intelligent and well rounded people I have ever talked to in the last year have had an athletic past.
Granted, there have been many publicized instances where we see athletes who have gone through millions of dollars and have declared bankruptcy within a few years after retirement. Those are the stories that are sexy to the media, though when a former player excels in multiple careers outside of athletics, it rarely gets coverage; it just isn’t a sexy story.

The amount of players who have participated in the National Hockey League who have managed to make the elusive 50 Goal Club is an elusive one. It is one of those magical numbers in sports, akin to a .300 Batting Average in Baseball, 1,500 Rushing Yards in a season in Football, and a 20 Points per Game Average in the National Basketball Association.
Anyone who accomplishes those above feats receive All Star recognition of some kind, especially if you do that more than once, or take it to the next level; a feat that former Hockey superstar, Dennis Maruk accomplished when he had consecutive 50 Goal seasons and became one of the rare players to net 60 Goals in an NHL campaign.

Countless football analysts have always stated that games are won in the trenches; though the battle between Offensive and Defensive Lines never show up in highlight videos or on stat sheets. These are players who always praised for what they do, though never showcased on our screen, at least during the game anyway.
Personally, when I watch a game that I have no rooting interest in, I try to spend at least a quarter only watching what happens at the line. Television, even in this High Definition and Multi-Camera angle era can never do justice to the brute physicality that happens there at every play.
