Message: [QUOTE="RandomGuy, post: 4113910, member: 6422"] While being called endorsements, I'm looking at this as a multiy year salary contract, paid by boosters. I imagine there is a legal argument that would classify these players as employees. Many years ago I was paid as a subcontractor; with a 1099. I was really just an employee. Pay was the higher subcontractor rate, paid my full 14% SS etc... I believe this is illegal, now. My employer could avoid filing his share of my SS, unemployment tax, insurances, liabilities, etc... I personally loved it, but the government did not. I dont see how these multi year "salaries" aren't put under the same lense. At that point, I think the players will all be classified as employees.
