College football, pro football.

College basketball, pro basketball.

THUGS

Paid for by ABC, CBS, NBC, ESPN, FOX and all the idiot fans that don't recognize it. The shame of America, if there is one, is the treatment of legitimate academic and sports achievers in lieu of the "talented" thugs.

At least baseball doesn't hide the fact that they take advantage of uneducated minorities AND majorities. Colleges do it every day and hide it from you and me. They should be put out of business.

Uh, the fans are at fault here.

Why not say "N___" and be done with it?

I concur completely. I remember at Miami (Ohio) in the early '50's -- in Ara's early years there -- we were given nothing but a chance to play; and our food, and a bed. And, we worked in the dining halls to "pay" for that -- three meals a day.

Times have indeed changed -- and I refuse to turn the tube on to any college or professional football. Most of the players are indeed, bums...hired guns in an out-of-control profession.
