Like I would love for you to walk up to Joe Burrow or Jayden Daniels and tell them that they didn't work hard in college.
Nice educated response. Working hard to be good at a sport is the same thing my 8 yr old nephew does as do millions of kids. Do they need to be paid because Traction is making money off them? Does the LHSAA need to pay high school players too? The problem with this country now is retards thinking kids need to be treated like adults. Nothing is ever enough.

Lol. I was asking a legitimate question. I don’t care if you consider there to be a market or not. We’re you referring to the fact that bigger schools can pay more for players than smaller schools when you said that employers can’t afford players?

is that really not enough money to play football?
Evidently not.
And college football has been a multibillion dollar a year industry for a long time, with everybody involved banking. You really thought we’d get away with convincing the players who risk their necks to be the product that makes all that money to just accept “payment” with a scholarship? …something that doesn’t even cut into the bottom line of the business, LOL! What great hustle that was for a bunch of very rich people.

You haven’t asked one legitimate question yet and you just proved this.

Only like 90% of the university’s in college athletics. Do you see the problem here?

Your facts are wrong

Your 8 year old nephew works out at 5am. Does he stay up until midnight watching film?

Lol what? Are you referring to the fact that your 8 year old nephews parents are paying Traction for a service?

No? The NCAA isn’t paying college football players either lol

I’m asking you right now what you are referring to when you say employers can’t afford to pay players. I don’t know why you won’t just answer the question.
Posted on 12/7/24 at 12:52 pm to LSBoosie
It’s not hard to understand, the people who are paying players can’t afford them.
Posted on 12/7/24 at 12:53 pm to Madking
I mean some can afford them, some can’t. That’s life.

kid making his way through college is hardly the same as an adult out in the world making a living and possibly supporting a family. Lester, we know your world ends at age 22 when these kids finish the college careers, but life does exist after that age.
What now, pee paw?

The fact that you believe players do this is comical

As are a lot of college players parents too. You think Traction only takes in what their expenses are?

It’s the same premise cupcake

Big picture, this is huge.
I laugh when I hear my HS students complain that it’s their “right” to be on their cellphone, or complain because I get to chew gum and drink a soda.
You’re seeing parents wanting to change their kid’s gender because little Timmy put on a dress.
Oh well, that’s an entirely different discussion.
Posted on 12/7/24 at 12:55 pm to LSBoosie
Again you’re too dumb to understated any of this which is why your response was some stupid, irrelevant cliche.

Wait you don’t think athletes wake up early for workouts or stay late to study film? Hahaha

Dude Traction is a for profit company. How is this relevant to anything.

What do you mean? The NCAA isn’t paying players just like the LHSAA isn’t paying players.

Him being on the side of Lester tells you all you need to know. A bunch of blabber just to argue with people. NIL needs a major change and was not intended to be what it is today. Everyone should be able to agree with that if you have half a brain

At what point does a person go from kid to adult? I thought it was 18 but I could be wrong.
Posted on 12/7/24 at 1:03 pm to Howyouluhdat
Hahaha I’m usually the first person to disagree with Lester. I’ve gotten into many of arguments with him. But I’m able to understand that people can agree on some things and disagree on others.
If you have a legitimate fix for NIL, I’d love to hear it. I’m all for improvement.

Some, most are not. If you went out at all when you were younger you would know that. Curfews get pushed to the side for big name players all the time. It took the Honey Badger 10 failed drug test to finally get kicked off the team but yea he’s waking up as an 18 yr old at 5 am working out and watching film study. You are a gullible little fella.
