While I am generally in agreement with the main point of the article, it saddens me that you won’t gain any ground appealing to the morals or ethics of athletes, but only by making financial arguments. What I wouldn’t give to be in the trap of having multimillion dollar athleticism and international celebrity. Boo Hoo.

I always thought that as part of a Athelete’s college experience that they need to learn that even making it as a professional does not equal making it in life. They need to plan and manage their whole life properly.

One of My Favorie TV Friday Night Lights,
I always wanted too see a eposide where a Former Professionl Athlete came in and Talked too, one of the Players (Like “Smash” with the ability to make the Pro’s) and explain to him you make the NFL but that does not mean you are set for life (especially if you are on the backside of the roster (35-52).
