        Is there anyone else out there who finds this quite presumptious and
        lacking any idea of the gulf between the pro game and the college
        game?  The World Championships are usually made up of pro players with
        perhaps 2-4 college players.  Usually, the few college players
        included are upperclassmen.  I don't really think 1 year in college
        and 2 years with the US World Junior team justifies the Ferraros'
        inclusion on the US World Championships team.  As for the 1994
        Olympics, no one is assured a spot, they have to win a spot during
        the training camp.  If the NHL decides to take a mid-season break and
        allow a "Dream Team" approach to the Olympics, there is no way any
        college player deserves to be on either the Canadian or US Olympic
        team.

        Quite an unfortunate choice of words don't you think.
