Dec. 27, 2010 - PPM -NCAA (in-)Justice
This week's Pet Peeve Monday (PPM) is the NCAA.
Last week the NCAA suspended five Ohio State University for selling their own stuff in order to pay their bills.
IT WAS THEIR STUFF.
They were given the trophies and awards for their performance on the field.
How can Cam Newton's Dad basically pimp out his son for $185K and there is no punishment?
So if Terrell Pryor's Dad had sold his son's stuff, it would have been OK?
At what point does their stuff, become their stuff? Because if isn't their stuff then don't give it to them until IT IS THEIR STUFF!
This is the reason I didn't play college football. OK, that and a lack of talent.
In addition to the 5 game suspension, the players have to pay back the $1000 or $2000. Wait a minute, they sold THEIR STUFF because they needed money for food, rent, clothes, and yes, tatoo's. Now they must find a way to make more money, without selling any of THEIR STUFF in order to pay the NCAA.
This is the same NCAA that makes millions off of the games these players play in, and millions off of the licensing fees for games for XBOX and other video game.
Sounds fair.

NCAA needs to be sued like baseball was by Curt Flood
A college education isn't enough compensation? Free room and fee food? The bottom line is that these ungrateful bastages should know better. Have a little class.
