New soccer star must fill big cleats

Freddy Adu is not just any 14-year-old. Last Saturday, when most teenagers spent their weekends going to the movies and hanging around the house, this 14-year-old played his first Major League Soccer game. Adu became the youngest athlete in a major American sports league in more than 100 years, entering in the 61st minute of the D.C. United's 2-1 win against the defending champion San Jose Earthquakes in the MLS season-opener. The much-hyped Adu didn't even score in the game - or take a shot -but his being out there is just unreal.

A payment better than money

College athletes are everywhere. Maybe you've bought Emeka Okafor's Connecticut basketball jersey or played as Maurice Clarett on Play Station 2's NCAA College Football 2004. But dressing like Okafor and living through Clarett doesn't lead to payment for college athletes. While the National Collegiate Athletic Association estimates that Division I schools each sell between $6 million and $7 million in team apparel a year, the athletes they are promoting receive none of the profits. That is, of course, if you don't consider full tuitions, expense-free housing and free books reasonable benefits.
