This day has been coming for the past decade. This is not about coronavirus. The cancelation of the season is about player organization. The media has continued to push the narrative that the ncaa is slavery and it was all coming to a head in this politically charged year.

The schools are saying go **** yourselves to these attempts at player organization. You can thank the ncaa for being a disaster of an entity, with zero leadership or forward thinking ability. You can thank these entitled brats who ask for ridiculous **** like 50% of revenue for the season, all while pissing on the idea of a free ride to a university education. You can thank the media for lapping up this bull**** for years, pushing again and again the narrative that amateur sports is slavery.

We should all be very concerned. There's a chance this is the beginning of the end of college football as we know it. There's a pretty good chance this sport may not even exist in the next few years. Some of you will feign disinterest, which is hilarious since you're posting on a college football board. But I'll be honest. Life without college football would absolutely suck. I love everything about this sport, it's given me some of the best memories of my life, and it makes me sick to think about it being killed by these embarrassing forces

Good!

Been a lot longer in the making than that.

The money has ruined the sport and it's been heading that way for over 30 years.

And I find myself caring WAY less than I would have thought I would 5 years ago....... or hell, 1 year ago.

Screw 'em.

Why is it hilarious? You can post on a college football board because you like college football and then things happen (like they have) to cause you not to care as much about it. What is hilarious, no, that isn't a the right word, what is sad is having a life that would suck without college football.

College football is way less important than the future of our country. If this helps us hit the reset button and leads some people to realize the stupidity of the path we are currently on, it's worth it. I don't think I'd have much fun anyway watching college football on Saturdays with the country crashing in the background. Maybe some of the players have the sense not to overplay their hand the next time around.

In any negotiation, you have to be prepared to walk away or you'll make stupid decisions. This is a negotiation for the future of the country.

This week is gonna be threads like this one after the other!

New kind of off season...an 18-month off season!

Honestly if season is canceled, a lot of us would just be well served to take a long hiatus from the football board. Travel and Outdoors will be my new hang outs

I hate to break it to you...none of your let's work together for the future of the country is happening. Are you aware of the November ticket? It is either more of the same or a 180 into who the f*** knows what. There is no working together...that ship sailed LONG ago...

CF needs to get back to the basics. Eliminate the scholarships and let's see who wants to play.

Hasn't Coronavirus taught us that there is way more to life than sports. I didn't really miss baseball or basketball. I liked football more, but I don't think I will miss it that much. I am not watching a minute of the NBA because of their kneeling and lame social injustice messages on their uniforms. I am fine if the only games I watch this Fall are my kids soccer games (unless those get cancelled).

The money in sports has gotten way out of hand. It makes the players think way too much of themselves. I don't care about their opinions on social matters. Being good at throwing a ball doesn't make you smarter or better able to form opinions on social issues. Why on earth do these athletes think we care about their opinions?

Sine poena nulla lex.

if we're honest...a correction is needed.

and it starts with the salaries of the coaching staffs

It's hard to imagine how some of you get through life each day.

Grow up

Sine poena nulla lex.

college athletes literally picked the worst year this CENTURY to try and organize. Tons of families are suffering from the pandemic and you think you are big time? let me remind you how many athletes actually make money at the next level.

What is going now is the result of these players being pampered to starting when they are in 5th- 6th grade and Into HS.
HS coaches are handcuffed now .. players run the show.
HS facilities are out of control , players think they are big time
Everyone gets a trophy mentaility
Spills over in the college ranks.. look at their facilities Ect
Mindset of these players starts to set in.. " I'm really an important person

Boom... that's where we are now

I remember College Football from the old days in the past, it's now evolved into something I no longer like.
I'm ready to wash my hands of it.

Maybe we could get back to having true student athletes.
