Where Have All Kids Gone?
By Tangotiger, 04:12 PM
Someone actually admits this as a good thing:
It’s almost a shame when you call a kid that you think you’re interested in and he refers you to his advisor—some 16- or 17-year-old kid and he has an advisor.
Change “a shame” to “impressive”, and I’m with this guy. I’m not sure how old you need to be where your interests need protection. If some college program or some MLB team can make money off your a$$, that is the time you need someone to protect your interests.
Some wide-eyed guy wants to have his pure baseball game, free from all the world’s vices. That game only exists in your backyard. Otherwise, stop trying to make the players play for love, while you reap the monetary rewards for his providing the entertainment.
