I would imagine being in front of a stadium full of fans and nationally televised each week would also be hard to give up. Not that people necessarily need the adoration, but it has to give you a high of some kind.
- afthonos 9y agoI know people who used to play varsity sports in high school and college, and, even at that level, moving past those years was difficult. They had come to really enjoy being in stadiums full of people cheering. I can only imagine how much more difficult it is when you're a pro, the stadiums are bigger, and you are on TV.
