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.
