Re: The religion of football

Interesting comments - I have had similar experiences. One summer during college I worked at a good sized University in my home town. (The University is part of the Big East conference.) Among the summer help were a handful of recently-recruited football players who had to work in order to satisfiy their athletic scholarships. These kids were just out of high school, but displayed peaking and comprehension skills of (about) a 7th grader. It was quite clear that their athletic prowess had allowed them to breeze through school without doing much academically. And if they panned out as solid football players, they would most likely skate through college as well. Then if they don't make it to the NFL (which only a couple do annually at this school,) they are in for a huge shock when they graduate and have to find employment.
