.... like the activities that the ‘athletic’ kids take part of (namely drinking heavily after games and beating each other to a pulp). These kids are looking for more out of life.

Is it sufficient enough to say that because he could smack a 90 mile an hour fast ball into left field and run the bases in record time that he’s a hero?
