NCAA was finally put in hot fucking water letting hogs line their pockets with millions in cash.
I think the arguments you and Fish are making are just as pie in the sky as pdub's.
I don't speak for fish, but my biggest argument has always been you can't morally (or legally) disallow NIL. And NIL is here.
Yes, and so with it is a decrease in interest from a large portion of the fan base.

is there any actual evidence of this?

i’m not saying your wrong, necessarily, but i really think it’s to early to know for sure...particularly the “large portion” aspect

Pdub and I are a large portion of the fan base.

I agree.
It's too early to tell.
My guess is you'll loose a lot of olds but the younger peeps won't care because they'll never have known anything different.

Yet to be seen but it sure hasn't hurt college football at all. "Large" portion is not supported by anything (yet?).

Regardless, that small percentage of viewers lost just doesn't bother me. If given the choice, I'd feel better about the circus with acrobats that get a fair living rather than working for free.

I didn't know that the acrobats, who were just starting off as acrobats, got over 100k year in benefits.

Hell no.
But imagine if The Sputnik bought out the Shack and installed brand new TV screens, had gimmicky things like stock prices on drafts, created a new whiskey cocktail menu with drinks like Gleaming Light of the Sky for 18 dollars, made the JukeBox digital and raised a play to 3 bucks.

Point taken, but you know what I meant--it's Barnum and Bailey making millions while the acrobats are given room and board. If the circus is barely squeaking by, I get it, but it's not and only some people were getting fat with cash.

It's been said over and over, but there are just so few examples where people aren't allowed to capitalize on their own personal market value. It's wrong and illegal, and that system is gone.

If there are examples of people not being able to capitalize on their own personal market value, it’s usually something like, cuz someone else is capitalizing on their value instead.

It seems to hold as true in college sports as it does in the strikes thread.
