I think people are maturing and aging later now than they used to. When I think of my dad and his generation, married, starting families, having jobs and responsibilities at age 21 and compare that to a 21 year old today? That’s a kid!

These super athletes, those who are under serious consideration for professional sports leagues, have - trying to say this gracefully - had their bottoms coddled their entire cognizant lives. Too many have never been given the opportunity to mature. Most don’t have dads! All of a sudden they’re making mega-bucks. Anything and everything they have an urge for is theirs. They’ve never learned restraint or self-discipline. And for most, it’s all over by the time they’re 30.

I agree with. College kids today act like kids. Athletes too!
