[QUOTE="bke1984, post: 857712, member: 932"] Nah, it's stupid man. Why is this ONE game a risk but the prior (pick a number) weren't? The chance of injury in this game is the same as it was in every other game. I.e. if you're Pickett and with three games left in the season you are eliminated from the ACCCG then why even play after that? This was literally the biggest game Pitt has played in since 2005 and their best player just decided it didn't matter to him. OK, so since it's a business, let's talk business. Guys like Pickett are almost certainly on an endowed scholarship and agreed to play football for the school in exchange for someone to pay for them to go to school. Well if you decide to sit out the biggest game in 16 years when you're perfectly healthy then I would consider that a violation of the agreement. Many may say I'm being ridiculous since he did so much for the school, but you can't call it a business for the kids and then say it's not a business for the schools. It's one way or the other.
