Originally posted by Cpt. Mcgillicutty View PostI still don't, have you priced out what it costs to go college for four years? These kids know the deal and are given what is needed to get them through school. Paying them is bullshit.
give them some fucking cash. That school is profiting from it plain as day. they're bringing in millions every game yoCOD

ok let me put it this way cpt
what if your company started a football team, but if you play, you just get paid your regular salary AND have to still finish your regular work. On top of that your company is making money every game you play and not giving you a dime.
You still want to play?COD

Originally posted by Cpt. Mcgillicutty View PostI see what you're trying to get at, but put it like this. You love playing football and someone is going to pay you (via an education) that would otherwise cost you possibly six figures. Do you wanna not play because you're not making money?
I'm sure some of them paid their own way
and I hate football I can't even imagine myself ever wanting to play for any reason
I love playing billiards, can I get a scholarship for that?COD

10 years ago I would agree with you cpt, but since the colleges have turned it into a business I think they should be forced to share the profits with those that created it.
Put it this way - you're in art school, you do a drawing and the school sells it for a fortune and you don't see a dime of it.. you still want to draw for them?COD

not only that but we're talking about a system that used to bribe and pay off players with cars and cash and merchandise to sway players to come to their school - now wtf does that have to do with education?
oh come to our school, here's a car, we need a mathematician?
give me a break. They're exploiting these kids for money.COD
