Due to covid. Let’s see what the athletes will do. All scholarships to college based on ACT and SAT scores.

What a world it would be if student-athletes were simply students who managed to make a team, rather than a multi billion dollar industry.

It's probably going to be at least a year, since about half of this country has been told enough times to be scared that they may never go out.

Even my inlaws, will not be going anywhere anytime soon. They have told her daughter, my wife, that they may not see each other for at least two years.
And they don't ever watch CNN.

Go with Bernie's plan also of giving every person over 16 $2K a month and all kids $500 a month and say frick it. If we are going stupid we may as well go full stupid.

Yeah I enjoy my falls celebrating with friends and family with football around. You can simply gfy and be angry over athletes speaking their mind. You’re probably angry at life in general

I want everyone to be at peace and enjoy life.

Life is very short. Why put off living for 2 years when no one knows how long they have to live?

Racist


You know, athletic scholarships are purely based on skill and is 0% based on skin color. Amazing that no one has a problem with this, but if you bring up academics, all of a sudden race has to be considered

Not angry at all. Just like to see what would happen. I’m putting up with the Marxist crap like everybody else but I’m as happy as can be. No stress. Just would like to see the athletes realize they live in the greatest country on earth. Sports has been a huge part of my life for over 60 years. Seen it all. But I don’t like when people are unappreciative of what they have. They’re taking down Washington and Jefferson statues now. It’s pathetic.

I get your point.
However, why can't football players be actual students?
The CFL, etc is higher level than NCAA. Let's stop pretending that the high level of play is why we watch college ball.

I’m fine with athletes speaking their minds. I’m not fine that their minds are apparently filled with toxic racist bullshite with an urge to tear the country apart.

I doubt more than 0.5% have ever read a single word of Marx let alone had a formal study of the philosophy. But it's the boogie man. If you cast your enemies as monsters then you don't have to reason for your own position anymore.
