Here is the text of my comment to CAPA:

Re:Kain Colter's testimony comparing NU football to Navy SEALs:

http://www.suntimes.com/sports/colleges/25673070-419/kain-colter-compares-nu-football-training-to-navy-seals.html

How many NU football players died as a result of their football games in the last 10 years, Kain?

How many NU football players have survived BUD/S, Kain?

Do they routinely imprison, interrogate, beat, and waterboard NU football players during training camp, Kain?

What an idiot. And how supremely stupid for CAPA to use this self-absorbed fool as a spokesman.

From the father of a Marine attack helo pilot and an Army surgeon treating far worse injuries at Walter Reed that any football player has ever suffered.

This young man clearly knows nothing about BUD/S training.

He should ask Pat Tillman how college football compares to an assignment with a SOCOM unit...
..oh wait. Never mind. He can’t.

..Mr. Colter should complete just ONE DAY of hell week for being so stupid...just ONE DAY.

What a sniveling moron! Comparing anything to being a Navy SEAL or any type of special forces is an automatic loss.

I almost hope they do unionize as it will at best, cause them to be treated as employees and make the $50,000 plus in tuition and other benefits the receive taxable income, and at worst (and more likely) end the Northwestern football program, as the Big 10 and NCAA will not allow paid, professional players to compete.

I played college football. At Sheppard AFB I worked out and trained with para rescue troops going through school there. I have some frame of reference for Colter. Colter hasn't a clue.
