That is such backwards thinking and not at all American.
So they are hired to play football and paid in scholarships and such. Sounds like capitalism.
Do like Boz -- start selling things afterwards -- if you are good there will be a market afterwards-- just don't do roids and wear a bad shirt to a bowl game.
Boz and his want to capitalize hurt those OU teams in the team sense, cocaine, gambling, and rape aside.
I work for an employer who gives me what they want. Capitalism I am unable to use my wares elsewhere for a multitude of reasons. They ceratinly are capitalizing --literally making millions--off of me.
