JD. I agree with you about the sports being glorified. When I was in school I never developed an interest in sports, one reason being my Dad had a job for us almost every day and it needed to be done when he came in from the fields. I am not saying that in a negative way either. Those responsibilities taught me how to discipline myself for later on in life.
The "jocks" who did the athletic things that were near my age have became mostly those who barely get by or live on assets that were given to them by their families. Those of us who had to work have went on to become fairly successful in our lives. I guess it is along the same lines of the girls who were the knock dead gorgeous ones have now went in to be old wrinkled women where the plain jane's are looking good in their older years.
I can remember some of those feelings of being scorned or not on the same level as the sports heroes when I was in school, but can smile at them now as they are the ones who have not been as successful. I also have bad feelings for the coaching staff also.
