[quote=Anonymous]As long as they're also able to get an education, sure. Why not spend a few years doing something unique and enjoyable if you're also getting paid MLS money (better than what most recent college grads make) or have an opportunity to experience another culture overseas? Different question -- would I want my kid to be a *college* athlete? For the most part, I'd say no, unless being an athlete greases the pathway into a good college. (Such an irony that the college team that's leading the way on unionization is the basketball team at Dartmouth. How many of those players would've been admitted to Dartmouth if they were 5-11 and couldn't hit from 3-point range?) [/quote]
