The NCAA's Rules Are So Damn Stupid The Supreme Court Actually Voted UNANIMOUSLY To Help Players Get More Compensation

Do you know how fucked up your rules have to be in order for the Supreme Court to actually vote unanimously on anything. It's impossible. I could say I'm left handed and somehow the vote would be 8-1. But the NCAA? Nope everyone just fucking hates the NCAA. I love it. That quote 'the NCAA is not above the law' should be on Mark Emmert's tombstone. Just put it there for all of eternity. 

This was specifically to the Alston case. But it's showing that we're about to fully be on name, image and likeness and good. I can't stop saying it. What's the problem with guys and girls getting paid on name, image and likeness based on what the market dictates? Again, this isn't schools paying them more money. Schools pay them in scholarships. Businesses pay them on name, image and likeness. What's the downside? Recruiting? Yeah, already happening and the same schools are going to benefit on NIL. Advantages? There's not one thing fair in college sports from one school to another. Simply what happens when there are 357 Division I basketball teams.

This is Mark Emmert's legacy. Being such a dipshit and running the NCAA so poorly and outdated that the Supreme Court unanimously voted against you. I already know that Emmert will take a victory lap whenever NIL gets approved. That's just who he is though. Now this isn't NIL approved yet. It's a step. Amateurism is just outdated. It's time to change it. I'll listen to any argument where you think a player shouldn't get money on name, image and likeness - again not from the school. I've yet to hear a logical one because anything you argue is basically contradictory to it all. 

This is the step we needed though. We're close for NIL happening and it's going to happen. Embrace it. Unanimously, simply unreal. What a world.
