You beat me to that one. As a huge Gretzky fan, that was my first thought when I read the article.
I like this guy's argument and was with him all the way, until he threw race into it. If his editor had just clipped that paragraph, it would have been a great article.
I also don't think it's David Stern's place to tell these kids what is better for them. (His they should stay in school line.) He is not their parent and doesn't get to make that decision. They should decide for themselves what is best for them.
The only age limit I could agree with is 18, and that is for legal reasons.
