It's not an opinion. It's lunacy. I really don't think these kids have
any idea of what slavery actually entailed. I can tell you this...
* Slavery never included a free college education, plush accommodations, millionaire coaches kissing your arse to get you to come and "play" for them
* It didn't come with free tutors to help you and encourage you to achieve academic success
* It never included hot coeds throwing themselves at your feet at every turn
* It didn't come with a stadium full of 90,000 + people cheering for you and along with the millions more watching television at home
* It didn't include arcade games, leather couches, flat screen tv's and a smoothie bar
* It didn't include countless people tending to your every need and a nutritionist who builds a diet of free and delicious foods to help you reach the peak of your abilities
* It didn't come with a
multi million dollar contract to
play a sport as
your job if indeed your abilities are maximized by coaching, training, medical care, and proper nutrition
*
It didn't come with the ability to start adult life debt free, while countless others are saddled with tens or even hundreds of thousands of dollars in student loans.
* It didn't come with a chance to live a childhood dream that most every American boy fantasized about while growing up
*
And once you're done playing the
game you love, it certainly didn't come without the almost certain guarantee of a job waiting for you by some UF alumni manager, executive or business owner.
Yeah... I feel real sorry for these poor kids having to suffer through this form of modern day slavery...
If it's just an opinion, as you describe it, I'd say it's a disgraceful one... that is to the ones who actually endured slavery.
