Letter to the Editor: Hope and forgiveness

The recent articles concerning recently fired University of Arkansas head football coach Bobby Petrino’s misdeeds are disturbing. For Petrino, it surely must be especially cold at home.

Unfortunately, his situation — terrible as it is for his family, for him and for countless others — has happened to other people over the years.

In a 1990 country song Mark Chestnutt sang about a guy drinking at a bar because: “It’s too hot to fish and too hot for golf and too cold at home.”

Most of all, Petrino needs our thoughts and prayers. Hopefully, with the resources that are available to him, he will seek and find forgiveness. And, live an exemplary life hereafter.
