You don't understand how much some people hate going to school
That's basically the reason why our immigrant population deserves everything they earn. They get it...work hard in school, get an academic scholarship, go to medical school/engineering/etc. and earn a very good living for the rest of your life. Take a look at the Valedictorians in the paper next month and that should tell you why this country is fricked. My 11 yr old thinks that he will buy his mom a "Lambo" one day when he gets to the NBA/NFL/MLB. I'll make sure that he has a back-up plan when it doesn't happen. Kids that "hate" learning are the result of a parent/parents that failed to do their part.
The sad part is that most of these marginal athlete's think that professional sports is the only way to financial freedom. The statistics on how many successful athletes are broke within 5 years of retirement should be plenty enough motivation to stay in school.
