Sports Illustrated is a sports magazine where mostly every sport is covered and talked about. My interest in sports has gotten me to choose this magazine for this project. There are several news that could be covered in the magazine. From team wins to controversial topics in the sport or with a professional athlete.

This article by Brandon Sneed talks about a promised pro athlete back in the day who had trouble to stop his addiction from drugs and alcohol. His name is Colt Brennan, he was known for his talent on the football field during college. However, during college, he would be part of scandalous events that would change people’s views of him. These events would tragically affect his football career and his life as well. It seem to me that he was going down the wrong path; being addicted to drugs and alcohol. According to the article, he did receive help and proper treatment. Being addicted to something can become really bad and affect someone’s life.
