'Tea' time for them

I think it should be mandatory that each athlete -- whether in football, baseball, hockey, soccer, etc. -- at the time they sign their contracts have to read (as a requirement) "Three Cups of Tea" by Greg Mortenson and David Oliver Relin.

I'm sure they will look at their chosen professions in a new light and admire Mr. Mortenson as a true hero.
