The race card is very powerful and has been strengthened for the last 6 or so years. He's just trying to use the nuclear option in the college football argument.

If they'd use the race card on the Marijuana argument, we'd have legalization by now.

That's not true because that's one issue that cops and prisons especially the ones in the south won't budge on.

The slavery thing doesn't work. You see slaves are forced to do something but force or by being sold or traded. With no real end game.

A college athlete has the CHOICE to use his/her talents to get a free education, top notch training to further their talent and the opportunity AFTER A FREE EDUCATION to turn their love of the game into millions of dollars. If not, then they have the education to get a career.

I fricking hate selfish arse kids who don't know anything but dollars and cents. They don't appreciate the things that they are given.

I would have killed for a free education by being good at being a student. But unfortunately that doesn't always pan out and I have $50k of debt.

I didn't have a free tutor, I couldn't take the easy classes because I had a sport to rely on for potential money.

These kids won't get any sympathy from me and NO I don't think they should be paid to play. It's their choice to play. They aren't sold into it.
