[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] “Despise” is a strong word to use. Just because you don’t enjoy sports doesn’t mean other people can’t or shouldn’t. It always seems that people who aren’t into athletics themselves “hate” athletics and want to take athletics out of schools. [/quote] I enjoy sports, but I also despise the college sports situation. These are billion dollar industries. The Big Ten will be getting about a billion dollars a year for their college football TV rights. SEC was getting $55 million from CBS, but that is going way up and they will get their own billion plus in deals. The reason for the conference realignments, is because the SEC network and similar channels get more subscriber payout from cable companies in states where they have teams. So SEC picked up Texas and Oklahoma. Universities become sports teams combined with hedge funds, and for places with tax avoidance, real estate operations, that happen to teach some classes.[/quote]
