Athlone,
I can't believe you quit playing football!!!
This could have been you!
I know, it is the Ivy League and girls don't like athletes as much, but damn, being an athlete in college is one of the greatest pussy getting adventures in a young mans life.
LOL not at my school bro.
The hierarchy there goes as follows:
1. Lacrosse (by far the greatest access to the prettiest girls on campus)
2. Rugby/Hockey
3. Soccer/Baseball
4. Football (maybe Basketball is around the same level)
Even the Crew kids are probably somewhere up above the fourth ranking there.
Football isn't a big enough DHV here to stick with it just to get action. It certainly isn't a "pussy getting adventure", and it can actually DLV you as well (lots of girls are scared of the football frat).
Had I stayed closer to home tried playing at UAlbany or Stony Brook, we'd be talking about a slightly different story. But at my Ivy, things are inverted-the money sports don't get the praise, and the niche sports (Rugby, Crew, Lacrosse) get a lot more respect.
Combine this with injuries (foot, brain, hamstrings, etc) and politics (I wasn't wealthy/well connected enough to avoid getting caught up in that wash), and making the decision to leave was a no-brainer.

I know a guy who went from the Ivy League to the Japanese pro football league. He is banging tons of hot Japanese girls and other chicks from around the world.
Cool. He probably wasn't doing that at his school.

Being an athlete is a once in a lifetime experience. It's priceless!
And I had the experience. I played Ivy football (my dream since childhood), started a couple of games. I have no regrets-I left at the right time. I can honestly say I don't envy the guys on my college team's roster right now, the folks in my old position. That program wasn't for me anymore.
I'm not going to pretend I don't envy some of these guys at other schools, though, especially given the stories I hear (and the videos above). Of course, there's a price to be paid there as well (can you play at that level?).
