Yeah, we all know this goes on at colleges and universities, but this guy simplifies the process:

Yep, and it shows.....we gettin' our moneys worth. ;)
Obviously Purdue needs to take lessons. It's funny, they can't seem to ever have a good football team and basketball team at the same time. Maybe all three only have enough to "fund" one program at a time.Quote:

Or be like bama, bigger than the NCAA
When you're as big and popular as Bama, you don't hafta pay players.....everyone wants to play there-----for free. ;)
Yeah, bullshit.Quote:

Think Maslow's hierarchy of needs. If you aon't heard of it look it up. Before people can aspire to more moral, intellectual, or academic levels, they first have to have their basic needs cared for. Apparently, that's what these bag men are doing.

Yep, but bag men ain't going away, anytime soon. ;)
That's likely true.

I know it's a HUGE business and will never go away, but for the life of me, I can't understand the emphasis put on the athletic programs at our colleges and universities. Whatever happened to readin', 'rightin' and 'rithmatic? I've seen many of these "college educated" ball players give interviews and they couldn't construct a proper sentence if their life depended on it.
Oh please. You must have either been born yesterday or in the 1800s. College sports have been around as long as colleges in America.
I might agree there is WAY too much money in college sports (see: Posthole's Postulate) but as far as 'emphasis' its been around for as long as I can remember. And I quite enjoy following it thank you.
So bite me.

I never said it's anything new ... what bugs me is the importance the schools assign to those programs. A university should be a LEARNING institution first ... let the kiddies play ball at recess. ;)
If they want to play after school, head over to the "Y" or join a league. It's no wonder our educational facilities are graduating a bunch of clueless frigging idiots. :stirthepot
Thump, it's all about bragging rights.....i.e., "My pecker is bigger than your pecker".....and, the alumni at a lotta schools are willing to pay for big peckers. ;)
Nobody's ever paid me for mine.

Your's just got "Trumped" ;)

I wouldn't sell mine anyway. Rent might be negotiable but...

Funny, his ex says the same thing about him. ;)
Attachment 9268
My wife prolly wouldn't let me anyway.

That money generated by the sports programs funds a lot of other things on those campuses too.

Yeah, like huge, elaborate stadiums, obscene salaries for coaches and sports scholarships handed out like candy? ;)
Yes, and engineering buildings, etc...
Curmudgeon!
Its worth the money just to see the POM squads.

They're prolly there on cheer leading scholarships. ;)
I didn't even know there was such a thing as cheer-leader scholarships, until my niece got one that paid for her full college tuition for two years.....I never could figure that kid out because she majored in Spanish, and even spent a year in Costa Rica, as an exchange student.....but, she couldn't speak a single day'um word of Spanish.....btw, she was a blonde, soooooo. ;)
I have a blonde neice that got a full ride for cheerleading. Hey it paid for her bachelors. She now has a PHD so I guess maybe it was worth it.
