One of the things I absolutely detest about our current culture is the ridiculous child celebrity phenomenon that revolves around youth sports. You would think that there were 25 Bronny James kids in every town.

I can’t even begin to tell you how many kids from around here who were hyped to the moon ended up at D3 and low level junior college programs.

so, yeah, I never stopped paying attention because I never really paid much attention to it at all. I guess my first clue was six years ago when a local All State, PBR hyped conference player player of the year Hit some thing like .143 in his career in D3, and Barely played until his junior year of college.
