[QUOTE="Skeptic, post: 807099, member: 2175"] One of the broader aspects of this -- and I am in the athletes' corner almost all the way -- is how this money making venture will be governed and by whom. Are the athletes going to be hounded by "agents" day and night, at school, at home and, I betcha, on the practice field? And pray tell, who is the guardian angel(s) who will help them navigate. Lord knows no matter what a school does to insulate a 19-year-old from the sharks -- Nike, that means you -- by giving them courses in financial management, more than half the NFL players who in theory make millions are broke within a decade of retirement, and owe millions of dollars. It is all well and good to make the NCAA cough up some of its loot, but history says few athletes will even have a clue how to figure out what his likeness is worth. I am not a lawyer but if there is one out there who can't figure a way to make a buck here, then he or she should get into auto repair. [/QUOTE]
