you can always work for a newspaper, but you'll never be able to play collegiate sports after you graduate.
if i were you, i'd choose the sport, so you won't regret it later on. and if you become a journalist/photographer, playing college level sports won't hurt your resume. might give you insight
:werd: I'd do something along those line. if you make the squad decline the position, you'll know you can hang with the big boys and you'd prove to yourself how good at soccer you are. continue with your photography and make some loot. besides what's more realistic? making money being a soccer player, or taking photos? you already know you have a future in sports photography, and because of your background it gives you an advantage. don't mess with your careear, you could be a staff photographer for SI and be chilling on the sideline of all the major sporting events getting paid grip.
