Message: [QUOTE="All4SU, post: 14657, member: 381"] Exactly right. Or get people to invest money in a minor league, so that these kids can go play in it, hoping against hope to make it as a professional some day. Or get a personal trainer and try to make a team on your own. You don't see the NFL Players' Union holding out for a minor league. The baseball analogy above is a good one. There are minor leagues in baseball, AND there are college teams competing at a high level. Choose your path. I am 100% against paying college athletes. I am 100% in favor of minor professional leagues. So stop criticizing the colleges, and put your energies into figuring out how football and basketball can develop minor leagues. If that cuts into the colleges' profits, so be it. Frankly, that would be a good thing. The criticism here is misdirected. [/QUOTE]
