They were just in the NFCCG…

The NBA is a garbage league. No defense of any kind anymore, people change teams just to chase a ring. It’s a joke.

Kobe throwing up in his ghost mouth.

Nah just a fan of a league where players don’t take 1/3 of the year off for rest while getting paid $40M+ a season.

Amen. Guaranteed contracts is the reason we watch crap basketball. If you could cut overpaid players like the NFL we would all see a better product.

Sorry if your low capacity mind can’t be entertained by football. NBA is simple - just like yourself.

With NIL and the transfer portal I'm afraid college football is on it's way there as well.

Yeah it's horrible that athletes can make money on their name rather than the NCAA and universities keeping it all. Come on, now. Change is hard but it was ridiculous that everyone but the athletes were making money from their skills

First, I never even implied that they shouldn't make money from their name. Second, they aren't making money from their name, in most cases their names mean nothing. If you are just going to pay a kid money to get him to come to your school don't try to blow bullshit up our asses by saying they want their NIL rights - they want them to PLAY. Call it booster cash, pay-to-play, free agency, etc., because no one is paying these kids to be in their commercials or for their likenesses.

Combined with the transfer protocol, small schools are losing players at an incredible pace, which includes players that they took a risk on to develop. And you can say good for the players, but the popularity that college football is built on is having a lot of competitive smaller schools. We are going end up with just be a handful of schools with big boosters paying 300 players on their rosters (because who cares about scholarship limits when players are making more in NIL than what tuition costs). This is essentially how it was before scholarship limits, and college football had a limited audience and was very regional.
