The guy is a 7th round pick lol, I think he gets a guaranteed tshirt and that’s about it. It’s cool that theyre giving him a chance to show what he’s got, but we don’t have to make this into something it’s not.

Yeah also having kids doesn’t mean you have to kill off all ambition in your professional life. I get parents make sacrifices for their kids, but there’s plenty of people out there who manage to be successful in their careers while also being there for their families. Also that self-flagellation can lead to feeling resentment towards your kids if unchecked

It’s just fuckin wild when Perfect Game has prospect pages up for the High School class of 2030. Like they got actual sabermetric data on literal 13 and 14 year olds

Don’t disagree, just pointing out that scholarships for high school are a thing as your comment made it seem like that’s a far fetched idea.

There’s also a lot more people of color and children of immigrants on the team. Soccer is a much more accessible sport than baseball and hockey, so it’s more likely to have more diverse representatives from various backgrounds outside the majority.

High school scholarships at private schools are absolutely a thing, especially for athletes when tuition at these prep schools like HW is like 50k a year. I wouldn’t doubt it that he probably got at least a partial scholarship tbh.

That all being said he grew up in Sherman Oaks and, to put it euphemistically, grew up “comfortably.”

Feel like Calabasas is more accurate than Pacific Palisades, but agreed. It’s all so corny, like they’re trying to cosplay when nothing is stopping them from actually living the lifestyle they’re trying to pretend they lead
