What a pity the country has to hold this young man to his sworn word to defend it when there are so many more important things at hand such as playing a kids' game for millions of dollars.

David Robinson and Napoleon McCallum really ought to take this young feller aside for a little counseling. With a ballbat.

Only child is at the USNA now. Midshipmen know what's expected of them when they sign their 2 for 7 at the beginning of their 3rd year. Two more years of education plus 5 years service. This guy will have a tough go with his peers. Nobody at the USNA thinks they will get out of their service commitment; that's not why they are there. They signed up to serve. Period.

If you knew the lengths that both Robinson and McCallum went to get out of their commitments you'd understand how mistaken you are.
