Doug and Tommy's Frequently Asked Questions: "Dear Doug, I am 15 years old and I was just wondering how you got where you are now. I know the usual, "work real hard, etc." but I don't think that is specific enough. I'm trying to find out if it is more, like do I need to leave high school on scholarship to college...but then what? Where do you go from there? Do you tryout or wait for them to come for you? Is there even a chance of a kicker with a straight-on shoe even having a chance? I also play hockey, but playing hockey in Pennsylvania is not going to get you anywhere far." -- Click here to read our answer
