Mine doesn't have extensions, but yes. She sends me these little jewels now and again...coincidentally when the kids are going to be out of the house for an extended period of time.

So you went with the "public restroom" decor for your house? Ballsy

Teh game? or D1 NCAA football? The former? meh, who cares...I don't play it...the latter? Would be good for college football...

The game.

And I'm not sure how it would go for CFB if they started openly paying players.

I mean they obviously do it now, but how do you determine who makes what?

Let's say you make it a $500 across the board payment for each player each game, you know some guy will come along and bitch, claiming "how much more revenue I generate for the school" argument and demand more....probably in front of a mediator.

It's a slippery slope once you start it.

No - that will go to Ox. After all, it was Ox's brother who killed him.

Got a problem with it?

Actually it was from our neighborhood pool.

I'm not stupid enough to actually buy one of those time sucking money pits for myself.

good call. 30K investment that raises the value of the house maybe $5k.

Agreed it's slippery, but I don't think it's a game check, the NCAA is marketing these kids images and profiting off it...If colleges and the NCAA are able to make billions off "amateur" athletics...then the players should be able to at a minimum market themselves and cash in on the celebrity their talents have allowed them to become.


take Troy Smith for example...as a college player, he had great marketability but couldn't cash in on it or he'd risk suspension/banning.....but as a pro? He's got none...and there are ooooodles of examples where these guys aren't afforded the right to market themself for financial benefit...

the NCAA has been raping these kids for years.....under the false pretense that paying them would be bad for competitive balance...but, the big money schools/conference are already dominating D1...so what are you really protecting?

Just doing the community and nation a favor. One less soon to be adult that would have collected welfare and had $200 sneakers every 3 months.

I buy all of the Maddens...:whistle:

I've been told that Madden has hardly changed really at all...beyond graphically of course.
