I see any of our players wearing that shite they instantly lose my support. You get paid approx $17k per year by UA. Quit being an ungrateful spoiled selfish bitch

Apu = all players united

Other teams players wrote it on their wristbands this week

Its mostly about paying players by forming an ad hoc "union" in protest of NCAA

I agree. As soon as they start paying players (officially) I'm out.

I'm already feeling really tired of all the ads and $$$$$$ that is around cfb. The gameday experience is becoming one big marketing effort.

The NCAA is bad enough. Paying players is insane.

I agree. Combine that with the fact that it would basically kill small school football as we know it. Considering that small school athletic budgets can barely afford having a football program and that only about twenty percent of division one football programs actually are in the black, I think that this is a bad idea.

I don't have an issue with letting players get away with little things [i.e. having dinner at a booster's house or getting a golf cart ride around campus or whatever], but acting as if players are overly exploited is ridiculous. They have a lot of responsibility on their shoulders, but they also have great opportunities as well.

I wish we could go back like 10 years in cfb. All these changes are for the worse
