This was circa Original American idol seasons 1-4, take that as you will.

Except that the athlete doesn’t get a college education like many of them want.  Most college athletes don’t go pro.  Those kids should be able to have a you tube channel or charge for lessons in their sport.  

Or, you could just let them monetize their likeness like everyone else can.  Then everyone except the exploiters wins.  

Why do you feel the need to make these young adults choose between athletics and college?   If a young person’s whole family has gone to Duke, and this young person is a 5 star recruit for basketball who wants to play basketball and get a college degree from Duke like the rest of their family, why should they have to…

No, I refuse to get excited over shit this dude should have started doing 2 years ago.  #itsaboutfuckingtime

One of my only NFL jerseys is a Dante Hall.  

Ummm, you realize they were at Oklahoma state together?  

I disagree. There are atheletes that want to be in college but leave early because they can’t get endorsement money and they can’t risk getting hurt in college and losing out. If a kid wants to be in college and is an exceptional athlete they should be able to make money off their likeness and compete proudly for…

More relevant would be the monies the coaches have made from endorsements and side hustles that bank off these kids labor.  

The Ca bill doesn’t mandate the school to pay players, it allows them to take advantage of endorsements and to use their likeness to make money such as a monetized YouTube channel, twitch stream, or even giving lessons in their sport. These kids should absolutely be able to use their image and likeness to make money…

I hope that Baker understands and accepts that if he’s going to be as unfiltered as he is, he’s going to eat shit sometimes. Let’s hope collectively that he doesn’t become more measured because of this.  That would really ruin the whole experience.

Ok, I know that this shouldn’t be funny and I shouldn’t be laughing at this, but the absolute absurdity of bouncing the ball off the defenders forehead is delightful to me. Who the fuck does that? The expression on Anderson’s face in the slo-mo replay is priceless. Happy birthday to me.

I’m sorry, not only was burfict not paralyzed, he was salty and oriented enough to reach over to try to take out JuJu’s ankles as he walked off. So spare me your false equivalency. 

Kinja ate my reply, so if 2 show up, I’m sorry. The hitee in the above JuJu video is none other than Vontaze Burfict. You know, the guy who was just ejected for the rest of the season for his history of trying to kill defenseless players with his helmet? That Vontaze Burfict. So, while I understand the argument…

I think #53 pulls on his collar to keep him from crowding Mason and he crumples backwards. At that point, he’s panicking for his QB.

The recipient of that hit is Vontaz Burfict, the guy then NFL just suspended for the rest of the season for dirty hits. So while an eye for an eye just leaves everybody blind, there’s certainly some satisfaction to be derived from watching Burfict be on the receiving end of one of those hits.

This is why nobody outside the B1G likes the B1G.

If you make Chex mix with crispix instead of rice and corn Chex, that’s one less box of cereal you have to buy. I also use kix instead of Cheerios.  That hint of sweet is awesome.
