all employers should hire their employees under name, image and likeness contracts as soon as it passes.

These elcted officials care more about their colleges and their sports programs than they do about new industry, etc or thye'd pass a law about no income tax on new hires to a new company.
These athletes are getting a million bucks or more, which would be the equivalent of taxes of probably 20 "normal" people, yet they are gonna wave these taxes and not for the common worker?

Let’s be honest here, the vast majority of those motherfrickers can barely pass high school. But sure, let’s not only give them free tuition (for playing a fricking game) let’s pay them as well!

And then, let’s not only pay them, let’s make every cent they earn from this game tax fricking exempt while taxing the frick out of the citizenry.

What a dumb fricking state. Complete slap to the face of working people

I have a feeling this ends up passing


It will, because any legislator voting NO will be labeled as not wanting LSU to win.

It’s a bullshite bill pandering to a large segment of low IQ voters.

I don’t mean this to be anti athlete but I’d rather Louisiana complete in other ways.

To be honest your teams will win more national championships if BS like this becomes law. But no one will really give a shite as the teams will be comprised of mercenary whores with zero allegiance to the school they won a championship playing for. I freaking hate college sports right now.

lol at Lauren Ventrella and Dixon McMakin being mentioned in this thread as principled conservatives who may vote against this.
