You’ve ruined my life. Why did I have to be born in October?
This from a serious hockey player who thinks his late birthday puts him at a nearly insurmountable competitive disadvantage. As if his mom (an MD, no less) and dad should have anticipated this 16 years ago when (if?) they were family planning. It’s part of his argument for reclassifying. It’s also a testament to age and today’s competitive athletic environment, especially in ice hockey.
