I've got a brilliant idea...it's called 4 years of college ball and the maturation process that goes with it! I have no problem with the athletes going for the big $ (who wouldn't), but the NBA money bags have ruined it. I just took a quick glance at a list of the top 50 pro athlete's incomes, and counted approx. 25 NBA players on the list earning (salary & endorsements) over 15 MILLION per year. I'm not envious of their salaries (well, maybe I am ), but MONEY has ruined the games/sports that I loved growing up.
