My parents got a scholarship, so I couldn't afford it.
Damn, well done.
No, I didn't want them to be playing sports at all.
It's kind of surprising.
My daughter took up sports and is playing volleyball and stuff like that, so.
Why didn't you want them to play sports?
Because I just know the ups and downs you can go through.
You know, I don't know.
I had a lot of friends with mental issues and depression and all that kind of stuff.
So I didn't really want them to, you know, go through that.
But, you know, sports teaches us a lot of lessons, you know, being resilient, teamwork, you know, all these things.
So it was good for them to learn those life lessons.
Yeah.
And it's not about development for the AAU system.
It's just about, you know, who can make the most money off a kid and a team and stuff like that.
So I think it needs to be moved back to development and just growing the kids and having fun.
And then if they go to be a pro, then they'll be a pro.
But don't force it on them.
Yeah.
That's hot right now.
