[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Athletes are not in the same track. But there is no reason for envy. They have to work incredibly hard while also being full time students. It’s a different educational experience along with a different admissions standard. [/quote]

So tired of the elitist attitude of athletes and parents. Kids who hold full time jobs, practice an instrument or perform have very challenging and demanding schedules. Athletes aren’t the only ones working hard. [/quote]

So tired of losers and haters who never got over their kid being cut from the middle school travel team. Stay mad, music nerds.[/quote]

exactly - nerds are the worst. totally a bunch of losers and haters. my kids were in the top 5000 for their sport nationally, so they totally deserved admittance to a top 10 school. [/quote]

The world's most famous Cellist Yo Yo Ma probably makes 3M/year and that number is very generous.  Meanwhile Bryce Harper makes 30M+/year playing baseball.  Therefore, it is absurd to compare a kid with music talent on the same level as a D1 recruited athlete.[/quote]

this is unassailable logic. Athletes rule, you nerds![/quote]

+1. Lol. I was trying to find a way of pointing out its illogic but you said it for me, and better![/quote]
