[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My issue is not what people choose to pursue as hobbies.  My problem is that there is an [b]inherent belief that sports are better than other hobbies[/b].  I have teens and they are made well aware that unless they do a sport, they are part of the less popular crowd.  I am thankful they don't careas much, but there are many kids who probably do care.

Where is your evidence to backup that claim?  I am sure a lot more women want to date Shawn Mendes than some random athletes.

Just ask your teens.  I am sure there is rare exceptions but the sport star is always seemingly the popular ones at school.  [/quote]

then explain to me why women would prefer to date Shawn Mendes than some US soccer athletes?[/quote]

That is a straw man because no one knows that. And I think most women would prefer to date a hot football QB than a hot pop singer, yes.[/quote]

If Landon Donovan or Clint Dempsey, US men soccer superstars, walk into a Giant grocery store, probably 99% of shoppers in the store would neither recognize them nor do they care.  If Justin Beiber or Post Malone walk into the same Giant grocery store, the police would be called in within minutes to restore order because a lot of young women want to be there and touch them.

That’s because no Americans care about professional soccer. If Tom Brady were walking down the cereal aisle, it would be a different story [/quote]
