Some of you take this way too seriously. I will always cheer on the Tigers as that’s where I went to college. But at the end of the day I understand that it’s an entertaining amateur product played by 18-22 year old kids which the majority will go on with their lives and do something other than football when their eligibility runs out,. For the good players, they view it as tryouts to showcase their talents so they can do this professionally and make a living doing it. That’s why some of them sit out the bowl games; because they’re thinking about their future. As far as worrying about if others leave a game early; Jesus Christ, get over it. If that’s something that upsets you or concerns you, please reevaluate your life.

You see the thing you're forgetting is some of these people have zero else in their life besides football. Therefore they grossly exaggerate a situation that is ultimately not that big of a deal because in their head they think they have invested and are risking as much as the players on the field. It's comical.

Anyone who believes that walking out on your team before the last game of the season (or even earlier in the year) because you're afraid you might get hurt, is an ok thing to do, I would suggest to them that maybe they should reevaluate their own lives.
You don't get where you want to go by bowing out. People can try to draw an imaginary line where they believe they can invent a difference between this scenario, and any other, but there is no difference. This isn't a matter of someone sitting out because he already HAS an injury, and is being advised not to play. We're talking about guys who just think it's cool to walk away whenever they feel like it.
That kind of attitude is not rewarded in life, period. Quit talking about these guys like they are children. These are young men, and I was their age not very long ago at all. They are not exempt to show such a lack of honor. That's the problem with too many people these days. There is no sense of honor. Only excuses on top of excuses to make themselves feel better about themselves or someone else.
