There's a BIG difference in baseball players and tuba players today, when you consider that a NCAA Division 1A baseball player is busy training to be a franchise player (and we know how many of THEM make it to the bigs.) Compare that to tubists, who are told "forget the orchestra gigs, you might as well teach." It should be noted that, unlike baseball where the focus has become chasing a lottery-payoff-style paycheck and not " the love of the game" at least the college tuba performance majors I know aren't doing it for the money!

b.t.w. yes I DO think the Giants should cut Barry Bonds
