pretty hard to get an athletic scholarship if you home school.
i'd say sports are a pretty good reason not to homeschool. extra cirricular activities are the means to creating a balanced life, you learn way more in school than just in class. performing in front of crowds, competing against your peers... these are big lessons.
also, i admit as a parent that i don't know everything there is to know about everything. not that teachers do, but there is strength in numbers and a collection of people, each with specific expertise, has great value that i do not have alone.
