Message: [QUOTE="Dave85, post: 1756769, member: 3946"] Working without being paid is not "Underpaid". I am not going to agree with all the socialists and communists that working without pay is good for the athletes. I believe in capitalism and the old fashion value that people who work should be paid. The colleges make tons of money off these players. "Student athlete" is a euphemism. Just like the "clean-air act" is euphemism for a corporate socialist boondoggle. If people at spending time doing something for the college that has nothing to do with academics but benefits the college will millions of dollars of income the people involved should be paid just like the coaches are paid. I understand we all have strong opinions on this subject. So I apologize if mine offend your way of boondoggle thinking. P.S. The scholarship is not being paid, it's bartering. Not the same thing as being paid. [/QUOTE]
