I'm not as concerned that he has a college degree as I am that he worked all the way through college and graduated without quitting. I know a lot of NFL and NBA players quit college and they only use college as a stepping stone to the big times. The fact that he finished is great. He went from not having a very high IQ to making it through college. It proves that if you are willing, you can learn anything! That is why kids should want to go to college. The sad thing is, that doesn't happen.

As far as the adoption part, I was serious about that. I didn't mean to imply that people from the South would be opposed to it, I was just saying that it doesn't seem as taboo in the North as it may in the South (from what I saw from the movie-not my own personal experience...I am not trying to offend anyone).

The taboo-o-meter aside, race and all that comes with it isn't a Southern construct.

Are you going based on the movie? LOL. It's a good thing that movies aren't teaching tools. And, no, you aren't offending me and I really wish you would quit with the disclaimers.
