    Those sports would make the study more interesting.

    Re: Proposed NCAA Recruiting Changes

    New recruiting guidelines are all well and good - but I give it 3 hours (at most) for the "experts" to find the loopholes to get around this.
    Chuck Lidell: I paint my toenails with pink and black polish. Problem is, I get more paint on my toes and on the carpet than on my nails. Any advice?
    Maria Sharapova: Don't you beat up other guys for a living? I don't know how to answer this.

    Yep. So should we pay the football and men's basketball players but not the swimmers and soccer team?

    They have a choice to play football. Plain and simple. No one is forcing them to play. Maybe we all need to look at ourselves and how much we are willing to spend on college sports.

    Oh, I have use for both legs. I'll have to enroll you for you to play. But I think I can sell the no legged football player to lifetime.
