Transcript of tonight's State of the Union address:

Athletics play such an important role in our society, but, unfortunately, some in professional sports are not setting much of an example. The use of performance-enhancing drugs like steroids in baseball, football, and other sports is dangerous, and it sends the wrong message that there are shortcuts to accomplishment, and that performance is more important than character.
I'm wondering, what exactly is Bush trying to say about sports? If they play such an important role in society, then what IS that role?
