I'll bet that's not what the football players being recruited by the service academies are thinking
when they sign on the dotted line.

Of course they are. They get an academy education, get treated like
rock stars while they play, officer privileges after that and have a
slim chance of turning pro when their 5 years are up

Ah, I was thinking 'military' advancement and culture...not pro football. What a dummy.
