Ten examples of sports growing more and more insane
NY Post
Man — provided you identify as one — it grows more insane by the day. Even my influence with influencers has been canceled. If only flat-earther Kyrie Irving had been right, we’d have fallen off an edge by now.
So drop down and give me 10!
1. Where do we start, today? Well, “A” is for Alabama. Just-retired ’Bama football coach Nick Saban said last week, “What we have now is not college football — not college football as we know it. You hear someone say, ‘student-athlete.’ That doesn’t exist.”
No fooling? When did Saban bump into that awakening? How many tens of millions of dollars in salary later did he reach that conclusion? Only after he retired he discovered that a fundamental education is not required to be recruited and enrolled on full scholarship to football-frenzied universities?
Does Saban mean to tell us that the dozens of his recruits who were arrested — once, four in one bust — for assorted high crimes and misdemeanors may not have had any legitimate reason to be enrolled at Alabama other than to win games for him?
Is he suggesting that Henry Ruggs III — star receiver on Saban’s 2017-18 national championship team and a first-round NFL draft pick by the Raiders and now doing hard time for a 156 mph DWI homicide — left Alabama worse than when he entered?
