    Northwestern football players are trying to start a labor union. The poor players aren't getting paid to play. The coaches get paid and they don't. The schools are making money by selling their jerseys. Sniff, sniff. Ignore the fact that you get a free education, a free platform to showcase your skills, fame and a shot at the NFL if you're a good enough player. None of that is worth anything, right? It would be nice if someone could determine the monetary value of the platform these players are provided by the NCAA and their school to make a name for themselves and further their careers, particularly the ones who are the best at what they do. That's worth millions in and of itself. So STFU.

    If you support this shit you need to DIAFF. You are supporting the end of CFB as we know it.


    I've got a gaggle of blicks that live out behind my house. They do absolutely everything for me to allow my business to make a substantial profit as I don't give them wages. Now, they have food, water, and shelter that is free. I also teach them a trade so they have job skills.

    How much would a Nick Saban appearance fee cost? Seriously, if I wanted Nick Saban to sit in a classroom and teach me his philosophies on how to stop the spread option for a two day mini camp, how much would he charge me?

    5k? 10K? More?

    Must be nice to experience that day in, day out, for free.

    Granted it's NCPA supported, but these are interesting findings.

    There will never be a way for players to gain full fair market value outlined here but it shows just how ridiculous the NCAA is. There needs to be a much better balance.

    Why don't you stop watching college football?
    I don't watch it for the amateurism. I watch it for the entertainment. I'm sure you do to.

    There is no component of amateurism in it that holds my interest. I just want to watch Washington win.
    Then shut the fuck up and watch
    Missing points right and left I see.

    If the NCAA cares about its long term viability it will make these changes.

    I also care about poor people who are misleadingly sold the premise of the student athlete. They should make what they're actually worth for the time being, or at least closer to it. And if they take advantage of their education then that's a bonus. Most of them don't currently anyway, and the schools share a lot of blame in that.


    Massa college doog helping the poor dumb darkies cuz he knows what's best

    Can they leave and go do something else if they want to?

    Just remove all of the restrictions on them earning outside income.

    They don't need to be paid. What they need is a fund set up to pay for their medical bills in 30 years.

    I see what you did there.

    It would just lead to more corruption. Johnny Manziel would be sell 100 autographed jersey's to A&M's top boosters and be given a couple million to ensure he returned next season.

    Has anyone else noticed the players haven't started bitching about the status quo until the talking heads and all the smarties who don't think things through on the sports forums started advocating for players to get paid? Coincidence? These rabble rousers are going to get what they deserve when they get watered down, shitty, amateur college football competing with shitty, amateur, watered down NFL farm league football. I expect College Doog to attend every Husky game in person after that happens, and he better fucking enjoy it.

    And what's the problem with that?

    I was against paying the players but I can't be on the same side as a fucking dope like blitzkrieg. Pay em.
