You ever play organized football?

Umm, I'm 6'6 and a decent athlete and my ex-wife who is his mother ran track at the D1 Level...long jump and the 200 meters. Both my sons 7 years old and almost 5 years old are already showing great signs. Matter of fact my ex-wife called me earlier this year and was telling me how she had at least 3 coaches contact her trying to convince her to get my son on their team. One even offered to pay for his equipment. BTW I don't even live in Cali and I had nothing to do with him getting starting QB...that was a coaches decision.

I mean do you really feel that much more important in life because your son knows the idiosyncrasies of a bull rush?

This is what people should be focused on, not the sheer # of players they have.

Florida has half the population, yet are only 34 behind Cali and 4 behind Tx w/ ~7million less people.

That's ridiculous.

Florida > *

this is why I would like to see comparable data from NBA and MLB
