Message: [QUOTE="bnoro, post: 5516384, member: 71"] They should be taxed as employees with health insurance and contracts. That is 100% the route we should be going at this point, rather than continuing the charade of "student athletes". College is a fraud, outside of highly specialized fields like engineering, research, medical professions, etc. Maybe one or two players are in those fields. A bachelor's degree is largely meaningless and a way for employers to weed out candidates that couldn't afford to attend school. What is the point of a business degree? There should 100% be a farm system for the NFL as college athletics are a monopoly. There is no avenue for players that do not have the grades to attend college to make the league. [/QUOTE]
