Reds player saves choking victim

I recently read and watched an interview regarding Cincinnati Reds third baseman Todd Frazier saving a choking victim at the restaurant he was dining at. Frazier was dining with teamate Ryan Ludwick when he noticed someone was choking across the room. Reacting quickly Frazier began administering the heimlich manuever and saving the individual. The reason I am addressing this article is becaue of its believable positivity. I am so used to hearing negative news regarding professional players regardless of which sport they are employed in. Usually its a D.U.I, battery or domestic violence, or possesion of nemerous illegal substances or fireams. However this article sheds light on the postive aspect of proffesional players. I would have more respect for players if they conducted themselves much like Todd Frazier on and off the field or court. Im so tired of players legally changing their names to aquire more fame or popularity (if you watch enough sports, you know who Im talking about). Why cant proffesional sports be more like they used to be? Where the player was idolized not only by his athletism or ability but his manner and attitude. Not only is Frazier a good-samaritian and a great ball player, but a Cincinati Red.
