has dropped about 50% in the last 10 or so years. Once that gets to 75%, I'm out. There will be other things that are more interesting to me that will occupy my time. NIL or not, that will probably happen pretty soon anyway if they continue with this stupid playoff system. College football is facing some BIG problems and they aren't addressing the issues. I almost think it is intentional on some level. Not sure what their end game is.

I stopped watching baseball after the strike in 1994(?) when the cancelled the World Series. I bet I haven't watched more than an inning or two per year since then. When the NFL pulled the Rams out of STL, I'm done with the NFL now. I don't miss either one. At all.

          100% of the revenue would be disbursed to players... - zounami MU - 1/3 15:56:50
               Distinguish between media rights and personal image rights - ScottsdaleTiger MU - 1/3 16:43:05
                    I understand all that. I never said players would be forced - zounami MU - 1/3 17:12:53
          no - pickle MU - 1/3 10:00:36
               Read the O'Bannon v. NCAA decision and also CA statute - ScottsdaleTiger MU - 1/3 16:03:07
                    i couldn't care less about what a court or the "law" says - pickle MU - 1/3 20:00:36
     Seems it would be easier, and workable, to - GA Tiger MU - 1/3 08:22:25

          And one of the better products - KC rules MU - 1/3 19:15:13
          Interesting discussion - Genco98 MU - 1/3 08:01:26
               Yep. (nm) - zounami MU - 1/3 15:46:46
               Exactly. My interest in college football - BigDave MU - 1/3 09:14:20
                    Yeah ultimately that’s what it is with a lot of this - Genco98 MU - 1/3 10:14:37
          Yes, and NFL teams are required to spend the same amounts - zounami MU - 1/3 00:47:16
               Your premise here fails completely - BigDave MU - 1/3 09:05:30
               The people pushing NILs do not care about parity. Parity is - DHighlander NWMSU - 1/3 00:53:07
                    Bingo. (nm) - zounami MU - 1/3 03:30:59
               Hell yes! - ERB KC - 1/3 00:49:56
     Not a good comparison. Teams share revenue because it is - DHighlander NWMSU - 1/2 23:47:31
          It's the *exact* same thing. All sports (not just college) - zounami MU - 1/3 00:13:23
               Teams require parity. So revenue sharing in a league or - DHighlander NWMSU - 1/3 00:21:24
                    Bad example. NFL teams are required to spend the same... - zounami MU - 1/3 00:34:07
                         Not a bad example at all. The cap only tells them what to - DHighlander NWMSU - 1/3 00:48:02
                              It would be funny if all the non stars unionized and - Genco98 MU - 1/3 09:04:55
     How can you control that - meatiger MU - 1/2 23:41:03
          Why should school B (Mizzou) get money from the name of - zounami MU - 1/3 00:06:57
               "must report all their earnings" - meatiger MU - 1/3 00:14:32
                    That's already a requirement for NIL, IIRC (nm) - zounami MU - 1/3 00:20:36
                         ...so the only change I'm proposing is that the reported - zounami MU - 1/3 00:24:18
               I answered this above. It is different. Bama has a vested - DHighlander NWMSU - 1/3 00:14:27
                    players would gain in similar ways that conferences do... - zounami MU - 1/3 00:18:23
                         They absolutely do not. Schools compete with each other - DHighlander NWMSU - 1/3 00:28:10
                              You didn't refute anything I said. (nm) - zounami MU - 1/3 00:34:52
                                   Yes I did. The players asking for the NIL have no interest - DHighlander NWMSU - 1/3 00:57:47
                                        I agree - every time it’s brought up to them by the media - Genco98 MU - 1/3 08:22:12
          I think it is a horrible idea because it opens a box that - DHighlander NWMSU - 1/2 23:53:33
               that ...and the number of people that have made billions - meatiger MU - 1/3 00:06:14
                    as I said below any player who feels he is being taken - DHighlander NWMSU - 1/3 00:11:44
               Exactly. *Something* has to be done about it, or there will - zounami MU - 1/3 00:03:46
                    Unfortunately I think the courts are going to take that - DHighlander NWMSU - 1/3 00:09:00
                         Agreed. (nm) - zounami MU - 1/3 00:14:32
