Well, okay. Ex engineer here, so I'm not gonna speak to the usefulness of a liberal arts degree.
Two part answer:
Holy shit, somehow Rosario Dawson got even hotter.
Right, but that system didn't stand to make ass tons of money off of him. NCAA needs to die. I'm a Big Ten alum, and I say fuck Jim Delaney. Either call the NCAA what it is (profitable minor league) and pay, or stop hiding behind the fallacy of amateurism. There is nothing amateur about it, and they use the guise of…
I just feel that the school knows what they are doing, and the student does not. The school is TRULY taking advantage, whereas the athlete only thinks he is taking advantage. Turning in shoddy papers and receiving passing grades is not what I would call taking advantage, because that degree is not going to be worth…
The system fails them on so many levels. If the NCAA really wants to make athletic scholarships a thing, it has to actually provide an education.
State? I just assume not Duke because they're "too good" to "recruit thugs."
Why? The education would have been worthless.
Your comment, while funny, made baby Jesus cry.
It's not funny because this dude is barely literate, it's funny because it's UNC. If this story came up in Tuscaloosa, zero people would be surprised. UNC is a school that prides itself on academics, so there's a degree of schadenfreude that comes with exposing hypocrisy.
That's a load of shit, though. The onus is not on him, because the school is facilitating this type of thing, while profiting from him.
I hate this line of reasoning because the assumption of a scholarship is that you are treated like any other student. If that is not the case, then your scholarship is worthless. The…
This is the "good" kind of racism, tho, didn't you know? KONY2012
How many of them are starters tho OHHHHH BURNNNN jkjk
Yo that is the whole point. The NCAA makes a shit ton of money on these athletes, and clearly, they are NOT getting an education. Athlete plays for school, generates revenue, gets education in return. You see how that basic contract didn't hold up?

I mean don't get me wrong, you are totally on the money about how a woman's life is valued less than some dude's right to play soccer. I just think that Brazil is not special in this.
I dunno if that's sympathy for the murderer as much as Brazilian people really, really love soccer. Like way too much. I mean, we also let athletes in high revenue sports literally get away with murder, but we don't let them out to play on a work release once they're convicted. That story is insane.
I would like a picture of said grand menagerie of guinea pigs. Sounds awesome.
I also don't understand how she is suddenly "financially independent" if she didn't work on her career like all these young women she's telling not to. Divorce settlement?
