Jim Tressel Has Resigned

Whether anyone gives a damn or not doesn't matter. If you're going to pay the athletes of one sport, then ALL athletes of ALL sports should be getting paid. Otherwise, hello a shit ton of lawsuits from all those athletes of the "sports no one gives a damn about". And like I said, real great message you're sending, this group of athletes are more entitled than that group of athletes, if you just pay college football and no one else, or football and basketball and no one else.

And trust me, some of those sports, soccer, lacrosse, tennis, etc, DO have large followings/fanbases. Just because you might not give a damn about them, doesn't mean no one gives a damn.

I'm not sending the message Smooth, its already the status quo.


the fact is ,no, the other sports dont generate enough attention for any valid argument. Its the football program or Basketball depending on the school, that generates serious revenue for an entire season. No one gives a damn about the other sports on tv till play off time and even then are only shown because there is nothing else to show.
Its political correctness that dictates we need to televise womens softball and basketball when the fact is ,no one watches it and it generates little revenue if any. Of course they never will pay college athletes but if so a criteria for max generated income would have to be met for the players to get anything and most football programs would be the only ones to qualify.

while womens water polo might be fascinating for most men to watch, its really a waste of money and time haha
