Dropping out of high school is usually a pretty bad career move. From the latest statistics from 2021, the average salary of a high school drop-out was $32,500, which puts you just above the poverty line.
That’s kinda like the Mendoza Line of Life. You don’t want to be anywhere near it, and if you are, then things aren’t going too well. Then there’s Bryce Harper. Usually when a kid decides to leave high school after his sophomore year, it’s to work a dead-end job and scrape by, which many teens consider a vast improvement over sitting in a classroom. There’s usually some horrible dysfunction involved. Could be a learning disability, family instability, or years of prior academic struggle.
Then there’s Bryce Harper. Harper wasn’t any of those things. In fact, he was an excellent student who kept up with his assignments and also found time to devote to the teachings of his Mormon faith. He came from a two-parent home. He didn’t suffer from substance abuse issues. He wasn’t a loner at war with the world. Yet he still took a huge gamble with his life. It obviously paid off, big-time. For every Bryce Harper, however, there’s a thousand other 16 year olds who were sure they’d make it big once they said good-bye to high school forever.
Usually that’s a clear path to the bottom rung of the American ladder. For Bryce Harper, it led to the riches beyond his wildest dreams and a place in baseball immortality. He’s a living and breathing MLB superstar. - กีฬา
Who's here after Harper hit a grand slam for his second three-homer game of his career
Me.
Meeeeee
I’m a day late. Great video.
Me
Meeeee ^_^ that was incredible 😅⚾
“At world with the war”…I know what your getting at though lol
The title phrases it like he was some rando who dropped out because he wasn't smart enough to graduate and not because he was going to get drafted in the first round regardless of his education lol
He dropped out and went to juco with a ged. Like not typical dropout
@@arkay9789 he didn't drop out, he graduated early. There's a distinct difference. He couldn't have gone to college if he hadn't completed high school.
@@usarms149 ged I don’t think is graduating, it’s different. Might be wrong
@@arkay9789 it is, just without the ceremony. You get the same credentials. It's the same thing the "geniuses" did to "graduate" early and go to college in their teens.
So we skipping the part that he played in Oklahoma, really helped him get drafted
It's a bit too late now isn't it
Stfu bozo nobody cares about that
This channel is underatted af, looking forward to future content. Earned yourself a sub
Your videos are great.. your delivery and cadence is even better! Keep up the great material. You’re going places!
Appreciate it! Videos are only going to get better :)
That was my high school in the first couple of seconds in your video! (Kevin Hart’s alumni too 😂.) That’s crazy because I noticed it right away!
I love the content kept up the grind
Thank you! Excited to keep getting better
As soon as he wins a World Series, he will be a 🐐
Great vid man
Thanks man! Trying to get better with each video
Interesting that Harper and Trout both ended up with thumb injuries. Trout did surgery and took 39 days while Harper didn't and it took 2 months.
Loaner at world with the war... i can dig it.
"A loner at world with the war". Did anyone else catch that? Luls.
Man, sometimes I hate myself 😂
Talent & Skill is everything you need in life you just have to be smart enough to use your talent & skill until you get to wherever you wanna go in life
Great video!! Keep it up
My man says his MVP season is becoming an afterthought, then fails to mention he won the 2021 MVP
FYI, getting your GED two years early does not make you a high school drop-out. Bryce didn't drop out of high school, he completed high school early. He's basically the Doogie Howser of baseball.
Harper's career is interesting because during the years after 2015, they refused to pitch to him and his obp was great. Then Covid happened and it got even better. Now they have decided to pitch to him and he's basically hit .300 every year since then.
Remember watching harper in Double-A as a child. Lifelong phillies fan, was my favorite player while on the Nats. Any bryce propaganda i'm here for
I could not have hated this man more when he was in DC…..and now that he’s home here in Philly……hero, legend, goat…..DA FIGHTIN PHILLIESSSSS!
The title makes it seems like he just became relevant last year. Bro been relevant for years now 😂
This would be a more fitting video for Acuña
Harper has proved he is a hall of fame talent. It's not a fluke when you win multiple MVP and do it 6 years apart. That's elite
Very solid editing & narration, I'm excited to see your channel grow. Keep it up Boss
Thanks man appreciate it!
How did you leave out that he won a mvp in Philly and the noise of the field during the Phillies games in the 2022 playoffs. The home run against the braves is one of the best postseason home runs ever
He was wicked smart I think he had a GPA over 4 then got his GED early. But certainly smarter than your average droput
Jon jones as well
MV3
Hope you can do a Strider video at some point…..Maybe next year after he wins the 2024 NL Cy Young.
Strider still having Harper nightmares. The Braves just couldn't handle the Phil's firepower
Chosen?
Thanks for this. Going to update it now lmaooo
Here in DC we still boo him when he comes up to bat. Mans could have gotten his ring if he stayed with us. 2019 was rad.
Mustve felt great to win a World Series right after he signed with the Phillies
@@BottomoftheInning He was a clubhouse cancer. Fortunately for the Phillies he's grown up a little. Young superstars tend to act like divas and it can be very divisive in the clubhouse.
I’ll never forget him going 3-5 with an epic bat flip home run in his return to DC. Phillies fans take over that stadium whenever they are in town. It’s a wonderful site to see.
