Looks like Danny Simmons will serve a mission before running at BYU. Such a massive sacrifice.

I think it's cool but don't necessarily think it's a massive sacrifice.

Probably depends on your sport and your mission. It'd be tough as an elite

Not really. In the grand scheme of things, it's not much of a sacrifice at all.

Nothing is a sacrifice in the grand scheme. We should stop using the word sacrifice.

I absolutely loved my mission. I don't love this sentiment. It is a sacrifice.
