Why I disagree with the NIL rule

 


As a lot of people know, the NCAA recently passed a rule stating that players will be allowed to profit off their name and likeliness.  To most people, this is a good thing, a big deal, finally NCAA athletes will be able to profit off of their names and make extra money for college things like that.  Me, as someone who was a high school athlete and has been a college football fan my whole life, as someone going to college,  I think this is wrong.  To me, selling your name and letting athletes make money.  In a lot of ways, I think it ruins the sport, because after all, college sports are not about the money and glory things like that.  Thats what pro sports are supposed to do.  College sports are supposed to be about passion, not about pay, or having a job, things like that.  In my opinion, college athletes are paid in scholarships and college aid, and how players do in and on the field to earn that money.  With the NIL ruling, college athletes are not going to be to focused on money and scholarships and care less about what happens in games because they will be worried about sponsorships and things like that because they did somthing against the terms of their contract.  Its going to ruin the passion and tradition of the sport which is why I disagree.

Rob Gronkowski comes out of retirement to play for the Buccaneers

The buccaneers already have one of the most talented receiving cores in the NFL right now.  With guys like Chris Godwin, Mike Evans, O.J Howard and Cameron Brate.  With the edition of Gronk, who knows how much better this receiving core will be.  I know that this season has not started yet.  But I think the Buccaneers are a playoff, maybe super bowl caliber team under the right circumstances.  But there is still a lot of things that need t...

Sunshine state hockey rivalry living up to the hype

  THE PANTHERS AND LIGHTNING HAVE CREATED ONE OF THE MOST ENTERTAINING PLAYOFF SERIES WE HAVE SEEN IN A WHILE The Florida panthers are set for a heated game six on Wednesday night at the Amalie arena at 8 pm.  In what has been an up and down series for both teams.  The lightning who had a seemingly insurmountable 3-1 lead in the series have suffered a critical loss in their hopes in winning the series after a 4-1 loss to bring the series to 3-2.  A win for the lightning would mean a series victory tonight and a win for the Florida panthers would create a challenging Friday night game 7 at the BB&T center in Sunrise for the Tampa Bay Lighting.
