Sit for a flag that’s paying me millions of dollars for playing a sport and setting my family up for life? Why on earth would I sit for that.

Why do people keep using this dumb reasoning?

Maybe they'll stop if you can name one other country that allows people from the ghetto to go to college for free regardless of academic ability, then go on to become a multi-millionaire fresh out of college just by playing a game 22 times a year AT MOST.

Are you shitting on good ol' American capitalism here? Colleges make good money from their top sports. They get the best players they can find to play for them so their team will win and have more support. The good players then get signed to professional teams so they can do the same. Those players then spend their money and it funds whatever businesses they buy from.
