Amen brother.Does anyone else think it is kind of a sad reflection on the world that people who are fortunate enough to have the financial means to support causes of their choosing, even have to think about handing out their hard earned $ to ensure “insert name here” student athlete gets to play the sport he/she wants at a institution of higher learning? Kinda seems like priorities are a little out of whack right now. Peace.
It is a major league rabbit hole all the way around. I mean, we're paying hundreds of dollars a year for cable TV and streaming and so forth and that goes to the schools and conferences and that's why this all came about, so the kids could get some dough, but they're not getting a share of the money the schools and conferences are getting, they're getting a relatively meager amount raised by collectives from, guess who - US, the same people who are doling out for our cable or dish or streaming services.
And its like when I gripe about the people who spend hard-earned cash on gambling, and then they bitch about the taxes or meeting the needs of the poor or the kids who are beaten by their lousy parents, etc. when they've got disposable income out the rear. Editorial comment. Priorities are definitely ain't quite right. I'm as guilty as the next guy.
