[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Bill Simmons is a popular sports podcast host and worth $200 million dollars. Even he was a swooped up into the travel sports craziness for years and would claim his daughter was going to go play D1 soccer. She ended up walking on to some D3 club team at an obscure New England college.[/quote] Emerson isn’t obscure in the communications field. [/quote] I believe Simmons’ daughter attended the most expensive prep school in LA. For 10 years he would brag about how amazing she was at soccer, how deeply invested the family was in her travel soccer career, and would name drop D1 schools like Vanderbilt and I think even Duke. To then end up walking on a club team at a fairly obscure D3 is hilarious. It’s just a famous example of what deluded braggart wackos most sports parents are. And of course AFTER the kid ended up at a D3, Simmons started yapping about what a racket the travel sports industrial complex is.[/quote]
