[QUOTE]Originally posted by Jay: [QB] But First, the question I seek answered is when does a person cease to be a "spokesman" of sorts for their given profession. Let's say that someone resembling Baloo, who stands in his silly looking bow tie behind the KFC counter, most certainly acts as a representative of that fine chicken establishment. Let's go further to say that were he to call someone rude names whilst handing them their bucket of chicken I think we all believe that he has crossed the line. But the question is, does he still represent the company when he is walking home from work and calls someone else rude names? Perhaps he is even wearing his company shirt when he does it. Or does he cross the line when someone who knows him and knows that he is a worker bee at the chicken place hears him call someother person very bad names? The last two represent Rocker more than the first. If what some of the arguments on this thread are true, then we are never wholly free from representative status of our corporate big brothers. By extension, never wholly free to discuss thoughts and ideas that don't mess with the corporate line lest we fear reprisal. This frightens me. And I agree that athletes in this society have too much privilege, but that is a different point all together. [/QB][/QUOTE]
