*If you are incapable of grasping the difference between a sports draft and true slavery, you are indeed stupid.*
Please tell me what you really think.
Muhammed Ali: “I’m glad my grandaddy got on that boat”. Does that make it ok? He didn’t have to pick up a weapon had he allowed himself to be drafted. Hindsight is 20-20. You’ll see things eventually. I’m working on you.
First, you put a single sentence from Muhammed Ali together with your own words that I put in italics above. Ali meant something entirely different from the spin you put on his words.
Second, the military draft, or conscription, is vastly different from being drafted by a sports team.
Drafting someone for a sports team (and by the way, the NFL isn't the only league to do so) means you have the opportunity to be hired by that team. You can turn it down.
When someone is drafted for military duty, he is not being hired for a job. He must comply or go to jail (or worse). Ali was convicted of draft evasion and was sentenced to 5 years in jail, along with a large fine and a ban from boxing. He appealed the conviction and it was overturned by the Supreme Court.
At this point I don't know if you really are this ignorant and stupid, or if you are a troll (could be both). Either way, you are doing yourself no credit with this ridiculous debate about the NFL draft being akin to slavery. If it's "slavery" to earn $10 million a year for playing a game, I would "get on that boat" too if I had the talent.
