Longtime Stanford fans will remember Rolle as the original “one that got away”,  back in 2006, when he picked Florida State over Stanford.  He thrived at FSU, where he became an all-America safety, graduated in three years, and won a Rhodes Scholarship. He had a cup of coffee in the NFL, but is now in his sixth year neurosurgical resident at Mass General.  Proof that the forty year decision does not require a Stanford degree.

The comment section features a long list of replies to a post from a physician named "Steve" who claims that Neurosurgeons aren't as smart as diagnosticians and lamenting that he is going into Neurosurgery when there is a shortage of primary care physicians in minority communities. There are so many problems with that comment that it is hard to know where to start. I hear that attitude pretty frequently, although not usually from other physicians. Anyway, there are many knowledgable responses to the post. It aggravated me to no end, and the Times closed the comment section, so I posted here.
