USA Today had a story yesterday about the amount of money college football coaches make. Some were making around $4 million a year. Just like the bank executives pulling millions of dollars a year while people's homes are being foreclosed on, these coaches make millions of dollars, while millions of people can't afford to even go to college.
I understand that our economy is based upon the concept that if you work hard, you can make a lot of money. The only problem is that not everyone has an equal shot. Good luck becomming one of those coaches without first going to college. I just can't believe I live in a world where dudes that tell other dudes where to go on a grass field make millions of dollars. Let's put our money where it really matters: educating our country. I promise we'll get a whole lot more value in education than we will in made up games. Maybe I'm biased though, I do quite dislike football.
