[quote=Anonymous]Please raise your hand if you are a (former) elite athlete that has truly experienced the challenges and successes of these athletes (and their families) that you critique. Comparing what it takes to be an Olympic athlete to travel-level sports is completely off-base! I have kids, they do travel sports, but the comparison is just apples and oranges. These athlete are the 1%.....you likely have no clue what innate talent they have or what it takes to complete at the level that they do. Like a successful professional (insert your profession of choice), you have chosen a career and EARNED the right to hold the title. Save your judgement....or just continue to post your ill-informed views on DCUM. *This has been a public service announcement[/quote]
