[QUOTE="Northeast Stinger, post: 949462, member: 1640"] I think that’s partly correct. In theory, everyone sacrificing together requires belief in a higher ideal. That could be based on religion, ideology, brotherhood, or something else. The problem with NIL getting out of proportion is that not everyone is sacrificing anymore. Only the little guy is sublimating his personal needs to any great degree. One of the things Marx was correct about, and I greatly simply his argument, is that a capitalist system which creates a few winners and a lot of losers undercuts the will to produce in the long run. So, yes, if I’m not a starter, and the starters are getting million $ gifts to play and I’m struggling to get any recognition or remuneration, I’m probably not going to spend a lot of energy trying to make the team better or help the stars shine even brighter. The challenge for college basketball right now will be how to continue the illusion that the system is fair so all colleges and players will continue to support the system. [/QUOTE]
