I suppose they are bragging that our kids get the experience of watching Bammer win championships?

It's great to be a Florida Gator! I know it's just a propaganda video for the UAA, but when they rattle off all our accomplishments over the last 30+ years it makes me proud to be a Gator (and not just a Gator fan, or Gator football fan). We have the best athletic program in the country and arguably the greatest combination of athletics and academics, too. Go Gators!

Glad you made sure to add your negativity to the thread though. We'd be lost without it!

Don't watch it. It totally voids your anti-Foley rants.

Question for you & all on this board: Are you now or have you ever been a booster?

I was a season ticket holder/booster for 25 years (1990-2014). I gave that up due to a job change, move etc. But I'm thinking I should give at least a small donation again. Gotta support the team that supports the teams.

Interesting fact that counters the "pay them" argument: UF spends $350k per student athlete over the course of their careers. That includes scholarships, medical/training, academic support, etc. First time I've seen a dollar figure for that.

And yet.... many are pushing for them to be paid because the schools are exploiting them.

You sound like a Democrat with this post. Make a declaration without looking at the evidence. Good job SandersDonkey

Well SandersDonkey, most communist countries are good at badminton, surprised that doesn't make you go from 6 to midnight

They will eventually run into the reality that only a handful of schools (UF being one) operates with a surplus or even break-even.

As you make abundantly clear.

Do you support the program financially? Have you in the past?
