[quote=Anonymous]Bill Simmons, who has the most popular sports podcast in the U.S. and was just given $200 million for his podcast company, is always talking about his teen daughter's travel soccer schedule and carting her across the state every weekend. In addition to being filthy rich, Simmons is a NE boarding school alum and went to Holy Cross, so it's not just dumb lower class parents caught up in this. His daughter goes to the most prestigious day school in Los Angeles, costs $45,000 a year. She plays on the school team too and they're not very good, yet she still doesn't have any stats, so she's clearly a mediocre player. Yet when you here him talk, it's as if she has some huge super intense soccer career. So even filthy rich parents are susceptible to these same delusions.[/quote]
