Deosn’t ANYONE teach these kids realistically?
I guess any moron CAN shout profanity into a microphone, to the beat of alleged ‘music’ but seriously... not everyon is going to make $millions doing it.
I know we had some football and athletic ‘stars’ in my high school who thought they were everything...
Until the Buffalo Bills “donkey basketball” came and they met real live football player and saw how huge they were.
Realistically they learned that they were NEVER going to be that big or be able to play professionally, so their goals change to more realistic possibilities.
This is what kids need to see- realistic possibilities
it’s like you and I had our brains synced up when writing our comments.
But don’cha know we Conservatives need to start embracing these people.....

I remember when I eleven years old and my mother told me to go over to a neighbor's house to get an autograph from a pro football player. The player, Jim Temp, was a retired ex-GB Packer, and the neighbor in question was his sister.
I remember waiting inside the living room when after a while the door opened. In walked the biggest human being I had ever seen in my life. Now this was the early sixties, and football players got a lot bigger in subsequent years. But the memory of Jim Temp walking through that door (and taking up most of the door space) still sticks in my memory after all these years.
“Realistically they learned that they were NEVER going to be that big or be able to play professionally, so their goals change to more realistic possibilities.”
That’s why they need to go to college, to get “educated” and spend all their time in the gym and the cafeteria getting bigger.
