A member asked:

Please help how can i don't say that's silly i really don't want to do football when i get back to school i have one week. help!?

I don't blame you: Sports do very little to advance most people's actual life goals. Your question is, "how do I humor my family / peers?" choose some other sport, or decide you want to be a solo endurance athlete, or announce you want to devote your time to your academic studies / future career (best choice!) or take up an instrument. Excel at whatever u choose. Be warm and say "i love you." good luck.
