Some valid comments, but I can't agree with these.

It's not a matter pf paying your dues longer; it's a matter of paying your dues period! It's no different starting at the age of 36 than it is at 18. You have to gain knowledge and experience at both ages before you will be ready to do higher level ball. What you eventually do out on the field will determine your future assignments.

You're mistaking youth with inexperience imo.
