in canada, it's hockey. i'm lucky i never went through that. but, they wake these kids up at 6 am and force them to spend hours skating around in circles, and tell them their future depends on it.

then they end up shoveling ditches because they never learned how to read.

we need to have a serious cultural discussion about getting competitive sports out of the class room and finding ways to generate young men that are more focused on their minds.

otherwise, the chinese are going to slowly beat the shit out of us and laugh at us as they do so.
