With the NCAA March Madness in full swing with Vegas bets and friendship rivalries at hand, the main issue with collegiate sports arise.... Why don't the athletes get paid?

Now, is it ridiculous that coaches get paid multi-million dollar contracts to coach college sports teams? Yes.

Is the major fundraiser for most colleges the successful athletics? Yes.

But to play devil's advocate to the popular belief that students should get paid for their performance on the field... How much more do you want?

I hear the same excuses of "you don't understand the pressure they go through", and "they're kids just like you."

Okay? So let me get this straight, these are kids who are most likely getting their school paid for as well as getting to play the sport they love and I should feel bad for them?

As the great Pete Rose would say," I would run through hell in a gasoline suit to play baseball." Now most of the athletes who are being told they should get paid are the ones who get to travel the country and play their sports in places that look like cathedrals compared to the fields I have played on. It's a little ridiculous.

For all the Johnny Manziel lovers out there who think that his troubles are the fault of never getting his college experience... Think about the fact that people like him have gotten to live the dream of people like me and are in my opinion... Pretty spoiled...
