One can easily argue that in many parts of the country it would be extremely difficult to function without the ability to drive. Hard to argue that not being allowed to play football is anywhere near as limiting.

But nice try, that's the best attempt I've seen so far on this thread.

It's called the Bill of Rights, not the Bill of Needs.

ANY time a search is conducted without probable cause and a warrant, no matter how trivial a case, the 4th Amendment is violated.

For a poor family, it would be difficult if not impossible to pay for the cost of college without an athletic scholarship. A university education has a major impact on lifetime earning potential.

Not having a car would be inconvenient but people can ride bicycles if they have to. More importantly, the rules against drunk driving are based on a proven risk to others. The football team may have a right to test for steroids in order to protect the integrity of the sport, but testing all participants in all extra-curricular activities for all drugs goes too far. Rules against drug use should reflect direct harm done to others and not just be an attempt to police people for their own good.

The public is in error when it takes taxes and spends them on a 'privilege' that requires the surrender of rights to access that privilege.

Simple huh.
