My son hit the college field this year along with several of his high school friends... The fund raising letters have begun to come in.
My real question/concern; my son school, and I'm sure the practice isn't limited to his school only, has 80+ players this fall, all trying to raise money. I have a little bit of an ethical issue with this practice. These schools are, in my opinion, using a number of these kids just to raise money. While I have no problem writing each school a small check, I want it to support a member of the team. After all 50+ of the guys are going to get cut, and who knows how many really didn't stand any chance at all.
