ESPN First Take on "Pay for Play"

[longislandcuse]

Whoa...

Mincing no words. Both SAS and Max Kellerman putting this on blast right now.

Basically both are on tv saying they know for a fact that players are funneled money from programs by street agents. Listing the "going rates" they've witnessed. Going into how this all works.

Worth the watch to hear them just say what's what.

*SAS just read a text he got while on tv from a street agent saying the going rate is $300k.

New York has a sports agency statute. Other states do as well, including NC. Maybe they should start enforcing the law, instead of complaining about cheating.

 

[Hoo's That]

Name names or its worthless hot air.

Even if naming the names gets you banned at Hop Sing's.

This. As a journalist or even a commentator, if you know it is going on and do nothing to publicize it with actual facts/players/teams, spare me the outrage. Admit you are complacent in pay-for-play and just do not care.
