There is a baseball player in our area that recently got drafted by the Boston Red Sox. This pitcher's team was in the State Finals this season and lost their first game.

You may not have heard it, but I did. And, the arguments were exactly the same: "he can go back later"; "the purpose of college is to get a high paying job -- he will earn more than $1m already", etc.
