I think it also depends on the school that you go to. At some schools, it is more "acceptable"/common to be a varsity athlete and Greek. (It can also be a team by team basis.) At others, it is somewhat unusual. You also have to look at the crazy factor-is it going to make you crazy to try and balance your obligations and responsibilities to your team AND your fraternity, especially if you are at a school, based on my interpretation of your comments, where it is unusual for varsity athletes to be Greek? If you think you can handle it, then, like anything else in life, give it a shot.
