Default H.S. football a must?

What you think.... I signed up for it and I enjoyed it at first when we played. First time playing it being a Junior in highschool now and we have m-w-f work-outs which are not bad at all. But im wondering if I should even play. Ive been thinking in order for me to have a 3.3 GPA for all 4 years I need a 4.0 my next two years. But I really want to play and kinda scared to quit. Did any of you guys play? I will probably be a linemen guard and linebacker.

I played freshman and sophmore year and there's no way in hell I'm playing again this year.

I get better grades when I'm not doing sports.

I was asked to play on the team, but I chose to work and make money instead.

I had 7 varsity letters in HS and graduated 5th in my class. HS was easy. I was poor though, only worked on some weekends and in the summer :happysad:

No, because I never understood the point of football.

I played junior and sophmore because the coach asked me to, and I hated it after that, because my HS sucked.

edit : freshmen and sophomore.

If you really want to play, then play. You can still get good grades while playing.
