An article in the Wichita Eagle about not closing an ice sports arena in Wichita had a quote it in that caught my attention about sports these days.

The quote "The plan to keep the rink open during the week was met with relief by Jean Mendez, who said it wouldn't interfere with hockey practice for her 4-year-old son, Sebastian.

"We've always wanted him to play hockey," she said. "If the rink closes, there goes our hockey scholarship."

Do you think this kid will still be playing hockey when he is 18, let alone get a college hockey scholarship. I have not seen many signings in the paper for hockey players out of Kansas.

This is the same debate we have hashed over and over about 6 year old state. How many of these kids will be wrestling in high school 15-20% maybe. Many parents are living a dream through the kids at to young of an age.
