So youre okay with black athletes getting fucked over in life? Because thats who would be getting royally screwed. Any kid who is in college and completely dependent on being a successful professional sports star to make it in life is already royally screwed. That's like buying everything on credit cards and just waiting for that winning lottery ticket to pay it all off. https://leagueside.com/chances-of-going-pro/ Lets focus on football. There are 1,093,234 high school football players in the United States, and 6.5% of those high school players (or 71,060) will play in college. The drop off from college to the pros is even more dramatic: only 1.2% college-level players will get drafted to the NFL. Even then, being a successful professional athlete is yet another hurdle to tackle. In short, roughly 853 players (0.00075%) make the pros each year out of an original population of nearly 1.1 million high school athletes. To put that number into perspective, thats about the odds of getting struck by lightning at some point in your life. --- "History Is Much Like An Endless Waltz.

First off, radiantadolin is a hypocrite. Youd think him being all about equality, hed be outraged that poor black kids missing out on that last scholarship shot.

A lot of poor kids need athletics to even get to college.

Unless there is a drastic turnaround in the numbers there is absolutely no way team sports at the high school and college level are played this Fall. And I have serious doubts about what the NBA and MLB are doing. The NFL is maybe the only league that happens in 2020 and even that will probably be abbreviated.

Again, we could just pay for their college. That IS an option. Having black kids damage their bodies permanently to receive a scholarship is not the only way to organize the world. The facts that we make college incredible expensive and because we segregate black kids into crap schools and neighborhoods as much as we did in the 60s and are why kids feel the need to play sports to get scholarships and have no other options. We could fix that, but based on TC's posting history, he'd consider that Venezuelan Anarcho-Communism.
