[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm sure it's intimidating for kids who aren't that athletic trying to join a sport so they have something to put on a college application. Why do there have to be tryouts? Why can't kids join because they want to? Adults put so much pressure on kids trying to make them into overachievers because everything is so competitive these days.

Watching the Olympics, I noticed Americans seem so obnoxious compared to people from other countries. It's as if they are so self-centered they don't even really see how they are acting like buffoons, and I'm an American.  Everyone's behavior is so over the top nowadays.  [/quote]

No student applying for college needs to have a sport on their application.  There are way more impressive ways for teens to spend their time.

Americans are the worst at the Olympics.   There was one male swimmer they were focused on.  He cried when he lost, came in 7th or something.   This after the male swimmers being the most obnoxious.    [/quote]
