This may be mixing apples and oranges, so forgive me.

Sitting at HS football game once, a good friend asked me if I'd rather be the starting shortstop at Vassar or the kicker at USC.  I thought about it so long I got confused and couldn't find my way to a clear answer.  At halftime he said, "C'mon, tell me.  What's your answer?"  I stuttered out, "Kicker at USC?"  He laughed and said "You're missing the point."  I'm still trying to figure out what the point is, but I did dimly understand he thought shortstop at Vassar was a better answer.
