Unlike other sports, football players have no professional option. There is no minor-league like other sports, and for that I blame the NFL who continue to have, for the most part, a taxpayer funded minor-league.

“Unlike other sports, football players have no professional option. There is no minor-league like other sports, and for that I blame the NFL who continue to have, for the most part, a taxpayer funded minor-league.”

I repeat:

College sports are NON professional, mind you. They should stay that way.

Do you advocate for professional field hockey or lacrosse? Professional rugby, luge or bobsledding? Professional weightlifting, shot-putting or javelin?

Of course you do not. There are millions of college athletes in sports and there is no professional league to graduate to...just because college football is played it does NOT mean that college football players deserve compensation.

You have earned yourself a place on my ‘just bitchin’ list’ as well.

Congratulations! You are a WINNER, er WHINER...
