Quote by Bill James

I would never encourage my children to be athletes - first because

I would never encourage my children to be athletes – first because my children are not athletes and second because there are so many people pushing to get to the top in sports that 100 people are crushed for each one who breaks through. This is unfortunate. – Bill James
