<p>as for whoever said that if this was europe, then the math people would be doing better, yes that is true… not because they value math higher… but because sports are not a school activity…
sports are a private activity that you do on your own time and which isnt linked in any way to school… the us is different from europe in that way… if a guy is awesome at football here, then they get into usc (or something), if a guy is awesome at soccer in europe, they get into manchester uniteds junior team or something :)</p>
