Per @TPM What is more important is the lost education. You dont need sports to compete against the world stage, you need educated individuals. So many lost out this year, there are dozens if not millions of poor households in America that dont have wi fi. How did they expect them to learn. And they lived in places that couldnt give a crap about them. I think you might find those places with higher youth cases of suicide and crime.
Danj,
I will respectfully disagree with you. In short, lost education means lost employable skills in a global market place. Our country continues to fall behind in education and technical skills around the world. Baseball and athletics employ very talented few in the world. Education is the big picture.

I am so glad that you get it.
