You basically said scouting is better and harder than Football. And how one doesn't need football. Many disagreed. Both are great to me. But football is MUCH harder and taught me 10 times more than scouting.
FYI.....Only 2% of HS athletes get scholarships. It's not an easy task.
Many college athletes are not on athletic scholarships.

I've had Eagle Scouts play all the sports in high school and some that played college ball. They tell me how much better in the game of life becoming an Eagle Scout is than playing sports. A told me he thinks being an Eagle Scout is the reason he got into pharmacy school. L told me about the time in chiropractic school, the professor started talking about Eagle Scouts. L raised his hand and said "I'm an Eagle Scout". The professor took him under his wings and spent extra time with him, because he is an Eagle Scout. I have three sons and two grandsons that are Eagle Scouts and they tell me how much being an Eagle has benefitted them. Heck, being an Eagle Scout still benefits me at 66 years of age. It still opens doors for me. Very few people would truly care if I played college ball.
I'm done.

That wasn't your statement. Your statement was Boy Scouts, or I guess just Scouts now, are more benefical than Football.
Only 2% of HS athletes get scholarships. It's not an easy task. ;)

I think someone started it by quoting inside the quote and went from there.

My daughter had a schedule like your talking about all 4 years as a student athlete. I have no idea how she graduated with a high GPA in Accounting. I always thought she would enjoy traveling all over the US. She said it was the part she hated the most.

Mine is a small firm. I always had a small staff. They each got to see all phases of the accounting process and were exposed to many client matters. Accordingly, they became very well-rounded. Working for a big firm, if you are stuck in auditing for example, you might travel a lot. That is all you are exposed to. I wonder if they are so wrapped-up in the project, possibly far away from home, they miss the opportunity to explore the uniqueness of each city.
I have downsized. I work partly from home, partly from a 100 sq ft office where I meet with clients. At my age and my client base, it's a good gig. I closed the doors early Friday and took Cub Scouts to Spook-O-Ree at Camp Don Harrington northeast of Canyon, Texas. It was a blast!
