mostly football, I personally hate B-Ball because on both college and NBA levels there's corruption big time. In the NBA, the players control the coaches and get paid WAY more than MLB and NFL players, mostly to sit on the bench more than those 2 leagues! I like college especially the tourney, but I hate the concept of 1 and done players, why bother going to college if you're just staying for a year, talk about selfish and unintelligent players not pursuing an education!

If you had the option of risking injury in college and never getting to live your dream or getting 3 more years of your dream and 3 more years of big money and then being able to go get an education afterwards, which would you choose?

college, because I would rather have intelligence and pursue an education rather than have money. What if I got hurt in the NBA and didn't have enough college expertise to find a back up job? Especially if I got hurt in my rookie year! I would rather play 4 years of college, have the major I want, then go to the NBA, and if I retired early because of an injury, I can rest easy knowing that I'm an expert in another field. Consider also how irresponsible athletes lately have become with their money, going bankrupt in as little as 5 years after retirement, or even while still playing!

First, you're implying that most college players actually major in anything that will get you a job. Second, odds are, if you leave college early, odds are you're getting a huge signing bonus and huge salary, enough to pay for college. Meanwhile, if you're injured in your sophomore year of college, you just lost your scholarship, and probably are going to have to drop out due to not being able to pay tuition.

Implying NBA players are mature enough to know how good they have it or even understanding the concept of saving and investing. All the time there are instances of the retarded sub culture known as basketball in the NBA and in the NCAA.

Well my favorite sports are Hockey and Baseball, but since Baseball season is over and Hockey season is cancelled, all I can really talk about is Football.

I haven't really seen any Basketball threads here, but I don't mind because I don't care about it. If you have something to talk about, there may be some lurkers that enjoy it.
