Finally in his last season he said, I don't want to do this anymore, I have a lot of things I like to do, dirt bike, hunt, fish and see friends

Sounds like he has a level head on his shoulders, good for him. Society puts waaaaay too much emphasis on sports.

Generally he does. When he sat down and talked to me about it he made a lot of sense. I did the best I could to replicate my childhood for the kids, and to some extent we did with long hours playing games in the yard with other kids. But there was not nearly enough pickup football, basketball,soccer or hockey. Not nearly enough.
