MrBlack - Why so bitter about kids who provide you with so much entertainment? These are good kids who have worked hard at their sport. 99.9% have done the right things in school to be afforded the opportunity to continue playing in college. Many of the D-I athletes who play basketball or football are often used by their universities for profit. These kids don't ask or set out to be what you considered pampered. If you want to blame what you consider excessive on someone, blame the universities and conferences they are part of, not the kids.

Mooshoo - quit rewritting history. Hoover increased taxes on the rich. He also helped to increase taxes (indirectly) for everyone by signing the largest tariff in U.S. history into law.
