    Just asking.

    Me? I am looking into game design. I would love to make games for 2K sports, or EA. I remember growing up wanting to make Star Wars games [​IMG] , so its always been a dream of mine to design games and program and such.

    Personally I'm not sure yet. I definitely want to go into sports. Maybe a writer, maybe an agent, maybe something in the front office, who knows. I'd love to work for the NFL though...

    Theres a few things I would love to do, professional graphic/web designer, sports analyst/writer or general manager of a sports team. The latter being an obvious fantasy.

    Yeah, I would love to be a GM of a team, but if you're not rich or a past NBA player, it'll be pretty hard.

    But I'm with C.K., if not that maybe a lawyer.

    I’m really not sure I would love to go into journalism but doubt it will ever happen. I plan to do some traveling after high school to think things out.

    Well I'm done High School after this year, and I plan on stacking up my portfolio and credintials so I can get into the Journalism program at Ryerson University (Toronto). From there, who knows...but I'd love to stay in Toronto or possibly the states covering basketball, baseball or sports in general.

    Currently me and a few friends are trying to start up an organization to "liberate" people...and when I say liberate I mean that politically, socially, mentally, etc....and when I say "people" I mean people of every color, nationality, etc......besides that I would love to either make MCing my profession or be some sort of guidance counselor.

    I'm just curious, why do you doubt it will happen? If you think you don't have the marks to, you can always goto college and possibly transfer to Uni after.

    I'd like to be a writer, screenplay writer specifically but going into that field you basically have 0% chance to succeed unless you have alot of high profile contacts or you have some great idea as well as the resources to make it and advertise it. It's basically the same chance that any of us will make it to the NBA, it's possible but highly unlikely.

    I'd also enjoy journalism depending on what subject I could write about.

    It?s not really about the marks more of a family situation as well as a financial one.

    I really want to be a sports writer when I grow up.

    I would love to work for ESPN or Sports Illustrated or something like that.

    When I was younger I was determined to be an NBA player lol...that dream didn't last long. Then came journalism from my early teens till about last year. Everyone around me has always said that I am a good writer and could excel in the field. However, I am not sure about getting into journalism because honestly, in terms of the financial aspects, I know I can make much more if I was to get into law, which is the path that I am focused upon now.

    Yes, it's more challenging, but I believe in myself enough that I know that I have what it takes to pull it out. So, if all else fails, my backup is going to be journalism, but my main career choice is getting into law.

    I would love to do journalism. My current major at my community college is essentially an extension of journalism, and when I transfer to a university next fall (looking at hopefully the University of Iowa), I'm hoping to do journalism there. I also would love to be a sports analyst. And beyond all of this, I've been thinking of taking coaching classes and coaching youth basketball at the YMCA. Not sure about that though.
