I have been involved with many discussions this week around Ron Artest, and the overall big picture of sports aggression. As I wrote about earlier this week, it’s not the emotion that gets players in trouble, but how they manifest their energy. When players allow their emotions to take the form of negative actions (like hitting another player), bad things happen. On the other hand, when athletes learn how to more effectively channel their emotions into positive and facilitative actions, good things almost always follow.
