For The Love Of Money

For all you college football fans take note of another $ grap by Universities and the NCAA. Two of the most hypocritical facets in sports today.

Today Northwestern hosts the University of Illinois. Northwestern is located in the Chicago area and this is a rivalry game for the state of Illinois. Great!

We all love rivalry games.  Alabama vs Auburn.  Army vs Navy. Miami vs FSU......etc...... SC vs IR........  But in order to make more money these schools have scheduled the game to be played in Wrigley Field.  All to sell more tickets...to make more money....    Sounds ok, but.....

Consider the dumbness of it all.   The "East" endzone is less than 2 feet from the brick outfield wall.  As a result, there will be no offensive plays run towards that endzone.  Imagine during a game when the end of a quater is reached and teams turn around and move to the other end of the field.   Well....that's the way this whole game is going to be played....let's say Illinois kicks off to Northwestern who is returning the kick towards the East endzone. The returner is stopped on his own 20.....The game is going to be stopped so both teams can move to the other end of the field...remark the ball on that 20 and now Northwestern will move East to West.   Idiotic....How long is this game going to take to complete....?

Maybe it's just me, but C'Mon Man!
