Good piece--I am also ambivalent. However, in a society which which professes to be "free market," the things we find disturbing are just part of everybody maximizing revenue in whatever way they can, and regulation is a four letter word, Pandora's box has been opened. Maybe there still is some hope in there???
Agree. I used to love college sports but now it’s like (as you mentioned) watching the minors. Now, it’s “show me the money”. I can watch big boy, big women sports. It’s a shame. Bad for the students, colleges and fans.
