Vince McMahon and his entire family are 100% liars, cheaters, thieves, and hypocrites. The same can be said about the board members of Sacred Heart University. I’m not just referring to “entertainment” forms of wrestling; I’m also talking about real life. I’m going to talk about several subjects that really anger me, since I play fairly by the rules but often seem to come up short in the game of life.
Recently I was watching some old wrestling matches on YouTube and I saw something that absolutely amazed me. I saw that Vince McMahon was being given an honorary doctorate degree. This really upset me because student loans placed me over $30,000 in debt while investing in my bachelor’s degree. I have no idea how much it would cost me to invest in a doctorate degree. I also spent a countless amount of time studying in order to graduate at the top of my class. But Mr. Vince McMahon gets a doctorate degree given to him for free, without investing any time other than showing up at the graduation ceremony!
I decided to do some research to see what college was offering this doctorate degree to Vince McMahon and what their motive might be for doing so. The name of the college giving this doctorate degree to Mr. McMahon is Sacred Heart University. I wanted to see why Sacred Heart University was willing to give Mr. McMahon a doctorate degree, even though no other college in the world was willing to do such a thing.
It didn’t take me long to find out why Mr. McMahon was being given a degree that he didn’t earn. I found out that Mrs. Linda McMahon, the wife if Vince, is a board member of Sacred Heart University. This type of environment is the perfect type of place for nepotism to rear its ugly head. For those of you that don’t know, nepotism is a form of bias and favoritism shown to a family member.
This means the reason why Vincent McMahon was not being offered a free doctorate degree by any other college on the entire planet is because Mrs. Linda McMahon is not a board member of those other schools. However, I think it’s pretty safe to say that if Linda McMahon were a board member of any other college, she would make sure that her hubby—Vince—got some form of degree that he didn’t earn, and therefore did not deserve to receive.
This type of immoral behavior is no surprise coming from the McMahon family. We saw a perfect example of this when Linda McMahon was running for governor of Connecticut. Linda repeatedly dodged questions about whether or not people employed as wrestlers for the WWE organization she owns are being given steroids. Linda McMahon looked like an acrobat the way she tried to dodge answering that question.
For example, when Linda McMahon was asked if her WWE wrestlers were being given steroids and using them, she repeatedly said “The health of our athletes is carefully monitored.”
Well, in the world of business and realism that statement is interpreted as “Yeah, we pay our doctors to ‘prescribe’ steroids to our employees; that way, we can get away with doing it legally. And if the blood-level measurements of our athletes start to exceed what we believe are safe, we stop giving them steroids for a while.”
The problem for Mrs. McMahon is that everyone else in the sports world and the world of moral ethics believes that what she and her husband are doing is unethical and puts the lives of the wrestlers at risks (something the selfish McMahon family is known for doing, as proven by the deaths of various wrestlers).
This problem upsets me even more when you think about the fact that Vince McMahon was recently on the cover of Muscle & Fitness Magazine because he looks so good, even though he is in his 60’s. If Vince McMahon had accomplished this achievement in a fair way, it might have been an inspiration to readers of the magazine. Sadly, Vince McMahon is definitely not someone readers of any fitness magazine would want to pattern their life after. Vince McMahon ended up with a muscular physique thanks to taking illegal steroids – something he has admitted to doing in a court of law.
What’s even worse is that Shane McMahon, the son of Vince and Linda, is also a user of steroids. What father in the world would actually be proud of his son being a steroid user? One minute Vince McMahon and his wife Linda are telling kids in Connecticut and across the world “Not to take steroids,” while the next minute Vince and Shane are injecting each other with illegal steroids. The only good thing is that Linda McMahon was not elected as governor of Connecticut.
Sadly, Vince McMahon’s whole reason for telling people not to take steroids is because he also markets nutritional supplements. Forms of protein, vitamins, and other supplements are the real reason why McMahon tells people to do things honestly. In reality, Vince McMahon wants you to buy his products in order to help him gain money. McMahon and his son will still take those illegal steroids in order to be better than you.
The difference is that McMahon employs doctors and can constantly monitor his health levels in safer ways that normal people can’t. But McMahon isn’t “normal,” he is “special,” since he takes steroids – cheating at the game of life, yet being rewarded for breaking the rules.
During his commencement speech at Sacred Heart University, Vince McMahon told the hard-working high-paying graduates “It’s important in life that you’re not afraid to fail. If you are not afraid to fail then you will be successful in life.”
The actions of Vince McMahon and Shane McMahon prove that they certainly weren’t afraid of taking illegal steroids. And the actions of Linda McMahon certainly proved she wasn’t afraid to lie about whether or not her family and her employees are given steroids. The message Dr. Vince McMahon is sending to graduates is that if you play by immoral rules like that, you will succeed in life.
The really sad thing is that Vince McMahon is correct. Hard-working people in today’s society put themselves hundreds-of-thousands of dollars in debt with student loans, only to find out that they can’t find a decent-paying job. This is something I personally experienced in life. What’s worse is that so many people play by the rules and do things fairly, yet end up as losers in the game of life.
The real losers of this situation are the students of Sacred Heart University. Due to the fact that they allowed Vince McMahon to receive a doctorate degree he didn’t earn and didn’t deserve, it means Sacred Heart University has lost accreditation. Sacred Heart University students have board members that illegally provide employees and family members with steroids and give undeserving family members degrees they didn’t earn.
Any student considering Sacred Heart University should definitely not attend that school. If you have not yet wasted money on Sacred Heart University, you should be thankful you still have the ability to avoid that bias-filled college. It’s the former graduates who paid money and worked hard for degrees that truly suffer thanks to Linda McMahon and Vince McMahon. It is these hard-working graduates that now possess degrees with less value thanks to the McMahon family.
