[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What I really don't understand is you walk into the high schools today and the good athletes are prominently displayed in a Hall of Fame on the wall outside the gym or whatever. Why aren't the good students displayed somewhere? Why isn't the picture of 1998's valedictorian up on the wall like the kid who made all-state in track or football?[/quote] You’re being disingenuous. It’s not that you don’t understand it - it’s simply that you don’t like it. But the answer is obvious. No one gives a $hit about former (or current) boring, nerdy valedictorians who will almost certainly live boring and uninspiring (possibly well-paid) lives as lawyers or doctors or engineers or accountants. The athletes are impressive AND they bring joy to other people (they’re fun to watch).[/quote]
