Recently I traveled by Uber in the Atlanta area. With over 30,000 entertainers in Atlanta, Georgia, I wondered how on earth could an Uber driver be discreet of celebrity-passenger pickup. The following are a few tips of why I believe celebrities should avoid the Uber and Lyft service whenever possible: Discretion isn't available!

Let's compare the recent football game to the overall sportsmanship conversation led by Jackson:     "You look for jobs where you have the skill capacity to be creative and to gain leverage. Why are we so good at football, basketball and baseball?  It's because whenever the playing field is even, the rules are public, the goals are clear, referees are fair and the score transparent, we can make it.  When you think about the things that we use and consume every day, we have no leverage.  When you vote less
