Right now coaches make 10-30 times what presidents do, highly prized recruits are suddenly driving $60,000 cars, and their impoverished parents suddenly have new houses. Nobody worries about this, so I have a hard time worrying about whether the players unionize.
Exactly. The whole system is a sham, but the product delivered every Saturday in the fall is too good to ignore.

Moe is one of the very few to bring up the fact that as employees, players will be required to pay both state & Federal income taxes on this income they claim they are receiving. And any injury "on the job" would now be covered by WC laws. Can you imagine the fraud that would come into play with a 3rd string guard, not playing, getting hurt & then dragging out his comp claim as real employees are now known to do? Who pays the union dues necessary to keep the union running?
