Hoping the olympics just goes away. Now it's all hyper scientifically prepped professionals competing to get attention in between ads on some idiotic exclusive network. College football is about to become the same thing. No more thrill of victory or agony of defeat, just filler to sell more toilet paper or something.
- smileysteve 5y ago> College football is about to become the same thing. It's a crime that a game between 2 not top 25 teams that run the clock takes 4 hours in a brutal September 12pm game; just so that commercials can play.
- majormajor 5y agoCollege football has been that for about 20 years. The rich got richer, the Saturdays got less interesting, the players got the short end. It's somewhat baffling that all the also-ran schools have such strong fanbases still - it's so stacked against them, moreso than in any other league.
- jessaustin 5y ago"...about to..."? What happened to cause this new thing? Do you mean that some of the people who work their asses off and destroy their health in order to generate all the money will get a tiny share of that money? Don't worry there will still be plenty of money left over for Dabo!
- jazzyjackson 5y ago> just filler to sell more toilet paper or something This has also bothered me, all the ads I get are toilet paper and insurance. I don’t feel the least bit influenced by them but they must spend gobs of money to make sure I know their name.
