Roland SMACKS Rand Paul For College Basketball Players Are Becoming 'Rap Stars' Rant

Рет қаралды 148,192

Жыл бұрын

Republican Senator Rand Paul says college basketball players are becoming "rap stars."
The Kentucky legislator made the comment during the Senate Homeland Security Committee's Permanent Subcommittee on Investigations' anti-trust hearing on the forthcoming merger of the PGA Tour and the Saudi-backed LIV Golf organization.
During the hearing, Paul explained his opposition to anti-trust laws in sports. He accused his fellow lawmakers of diminishing college football by allowing players to monetize their "Name, Image, and Likeness" rights.

Because it cuts into their cut. If they had their way, even in the Major leagues, they would never approve anything more than a $500K /5 yr contract/no perks. It's well known that they want us to go back to free labor otherwise why do they always go after certain people of color with a ML status but the whyte players can always find their way out of the same issues. The whole world revolves around evil, marked money and until the laws are written to encompass fair acts equal across the board nothing will change. Historically ALL laws are written and passed for the benefit of the majority community.

Here in Missouri, they've basically created a LAW that says if you agree to go/sign to a school in the state, you can start getting your NIL money while you are in High School, plus the college coaches can now also get in an work out deal s directly w/ the atheletes where previously they could not and had to work through a 3rd party collectivie or something like that.

So is it racist to be a rap star? Bro, these people scream racism for everything! Racism has no meaning anymore. So if we refer to someone as a rock star is that racists as well?

Why is he mentioning rap stars, and this story is about college basketball players? That's the better question. He's mad because now the college athletes are starting to financially benefit from their talents. College athletes help their schools make millions of dollars, and they should get paid a portion of the money that they helped these schools to make.

It’s obvious that he has an issue with the players taking a piece of the bag!

@najf5884 9 ай бұрын

So basically colleges should making millions if not billions off the players. And what's wrong with aspiring to own a Bentley if you are working hard in class and on the basketball court. Give these players their fair share of profits.

@Runforestrun Жыл бұрын

So its fine for colleges to make billions off the backs of these athletes, and coach to make millions off them as well. But its not okay for the athletes to make any money?.... How does this make sense...
