Only took them over 100 years to do so. http://www.ncaa.org/...he+NCAA+history The NCAA was founded in 1906 to protect young people from the dangerous and exploitive athletics practices of the time.........

Also, as a multi-billion dollar industry that crosses state lines and exploits minority employees, the NFL should be investigated for having a playoff structure that allowed the 7-9 Seahawks into the playoffs last year while the 10-6 Giants stayed home.

Full ride scholarships = "exploitation" < Mentioning a black man's tweets = racism. Either way, youre on some roll this week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, tell me that the Pac-10 doles out $3 billion worth of scholarships to equate this take. The scholarship argument may have some merit if schools actually enforced rules where students got the benefit of that scholarship. But with a sub 50% graduation rate, the scholarship argument is a bit hollow. The NCAA is the most hypocritical organization out there getting fat on underprivileged kids. The college feeder system to the pros worked fine when no one made money on it. But now that individual conferences are booking billions in revenues, it's a joke that players can't even take a free plane ride. Stop the charade, big time college athletics is not an amateur sport anymore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
