It’s inevitable that there’ll be widespread condemnation of Tom Liberatore after what today’s Age calls “his disastrous night out”.
But AussieRulesBlog advises caution. We’ll reluctantly admit to our sixth decade and we could never have been labelled a hellraiser, yet we can recall too many instances of similarly ill-considered behaviour. Fortunately for us, at least in the this respect, we weren’t listed by an AFL club and there wasn’t a 24-hour news monster that demanded fresh blood every day like some grubby vampire.
Lest anyone be tempted to moralise, we encourage them to quickly review the tape of their own lives and decide whether they’re in a position to comment.
For those of our loyal readers still muddling their way through their second or third decade, believe us: you’ll do something stupid one day. It might not be drink, it might not be drugs, but it will be stupid.
Does AussieRulesBlog condone what happened? Hell, no! Can we understand how otherwise sober and responsible people can cross a line? Hell, yes!
