Think Before You Act: Coach Blu's Take on Addiction, Stigma, and Respect

Team Addict II Athlete's philosophy is to erase addiction and replace it with things of greater value.
Ever wondered how a simple act of poor sportsmanship can ripple into something much bigger? In this episode of the Addict II Athlete Podcast, Coach Blu Robinson dives into the fallout from a controversial moment during the Brigham Young University vs. University of Utah football game. The incident involved a Board of Director's decision to wear a shirt mocking former BYU quarterback Max Hall's mug shot.
Coach Blu doesn't just stop at the surface; he digs deep into the broader issue of addiction and the negative stigma that often surrounds it. With 255 people losing their lives to addiction daily, the episode underscores the importance of empathy and understanding in our communities. Coach Blu passionately discusses how mocking someone who has turned their life around is not just disrespectful but harmful to the broader fight against addiction.
He calls for more love, empathy, and community support to help erase the stigma and replace it with positive action. This episode is a heartfelt plea for better understanding and respect for those battling addiction, making it a must-listen for anyone affected by or interested in recovery.
