Frito, it's always about the money.
It's a damn shame that 18 yr olds have the breadth and depth of opportunity before them that they do. What a waste
I want to be 18 again and talented (each is as likely as the other) Who knew what is out there for the taking
My point to my earlier post is that as nice as it would be to send my kid to a softball factory and see her play on ESPN, it would be nicer to see her make more money at 24 than I saw at 34 with a rock solid academic background. Use the system for your benefit instead of letting the system use your kid.

I recall a discussion by the fathers of senior girls at Tomball when my daughter was a freshman. They were commenting on a studdette of a player that they all knew (I didn't) who played 2-3 years ahead of their daughters. This girl was a phenom who was an All American at Baylor who at last sighting was tending bar, tatted up and going to night school trying to get a teaching certificate. What a waste. Thier point to me and each other was that this kid wasted her college years, accomplished nothing that was marketable and is now serving Tecade's in a halter top for tips and blow.
For you youngsters out there, ITS ALWAYS ABOUT THE MONEY
Prepare yourself for life. It's tough out there, and it's alot tougher when you're stupid
Sometimes too much to drink is barely enough.
