Life experience that was useful 30 years ago and that hasnt been relevant since, yes.

Kind of like if you work a fast food job, nobody is really going to think much of you for quitting. Nobody thinks anything of the kids who leave early for the draft(quitting) etc either.

But if you quit that fast food job in the middle of your shift and leave everyone else there fricked over and having to deal with your absence, then people are going to think you are a piece of shite loser.

And the same thing goes when you don't finish out the season with your team. It's like quitting on them and leaving them out to dry.


This doesn't come remotely close to holding any water.

If they quit on the team in the middle of a game, then it would make sense. You're trying to stretch whatever you can to make your nonsensical argument work and it doesn't.

It still applies for other days as well. If you quit before your schedule is over, you are screwing them unless they have someone to replace you.

The degree to which you are screwing them is based on how important you are to them. If I quit my job tomorrow, my company would be fricked hardcore for many months because it would be near impossible to replace me.

So how important to the team do you think that super star is?

If you aren't important, then nobody gives a frick. If a walk-on decided to opt out, nobody cares. But when you are important and a big part of things, it's a different story.

By your logic players rated as high draft picks should quit as soon as possible after receiving their high draft grade, and it doesn't matter when that time is. Winning in college will never, ever trump the millions they could possibly screw themselves out of in the pros. Gotta buy momma that new house.
