Paying Student-Athletes Is Long Overdue

It seems that many college commissioners are looking into a pay scale for the student athlete in the future. This is something that should have been done a long time ago. The NCAA make plenty of money of the student athlete and they should have a piece of the pie. Giving them some of it only seems fair to help pay for expenses. This may stop these student athletes from selling things they have to get extra money.

The Ohio State Buckeye case is a prime example some kind of stipend is need for the student athlete. If the universities do not put something in place soon this is going to keep happening. When the NCAA suspends star players it hurts the athlete, school,and the NCAA as they have reduce revenue as that player is not on the field. Some kind of across the board payment seems like a good idea. The real question is how long will it take for someone to get the ball rolling.

Tim Tebow Money Generating Machine For NFL!

We might not know if Tim Tebow is going to make it as an NFL quarterback, but the one thing we do know is he is an hot commodity. Tebow's jersey was No.1 in sales for the month of April. The Broncos as a team was rated 10th in March, but soar to No.1 in sales thanks to Tim Tebow's No.15 jersey sales. April's No.2 seller is Donovan McNabb's new Washington Redskins jersey. Sam Bradford and Ndamukong Suh both cracked the top 10 in April.

Tim Tebow may never play a down in a regular season game, but you cannot doubt the following that he has. The Denver Broncos and the NFL are making the most out of it and you cannot blame them. I am sure they probably already knew what drawing power he had before he entered the NFL. Like Tebow or not you cannot argue the drawing power this young man seems to have across the nation.
