The NCAA is the most corrupt institution in America.

Recommended Posts

That includes congress and the democratic party, the NCAA is more corrupt then all of them.

Modern amateurism was born in the 1800s in England. Wealthy elites competed in sports such as sailing, crew and polo and dominated because they had the leisure time to practice and train. The working class may have had better athletes, but to feed their families they worked six and seven days a week in factories or on farms.

Eventually some rich guys began paying their workers to practice a sport and loaded up country-club teams with ringers. The elites, no longer assured victory, created the idea of amateurism and disqualified anyone who was paid to play (meaning the poor who had to work).

Amateurism wasn’t designed out of purity. There was nothing honorable or righteous about it. It was created to protect rich people who didn’t want a fair competition. It was codified cheating.

The good news for you is that the XFL will be back in a couple years so you can watch that instead.

Seriously though, you are always b1tching about the NCAA and players being used like slaves. Yet you never offer any real, concrete solutions.

Tell us your grand vision and leave out no details.

Solutions? Whether professional or amateur, women's beach volleyball and a 12 pack of beer is always the #1 solution.
