I don’t understand how being bought in with your parents money is ok yet an athelete actually doing a thing themselves with their own bodies shouldn’t “get a pass”. Especially given that they still have to, you know, pass classes!

Let’s not pretend all those legacies are showing up to class and working hard.

Because sports have absolutely zero to do with education. Or even they should be considered negative thing. Taking time away from studying.

I think for the same weird reason why people tend to be OK with top athletes making billions while they are upset at Gates and Bezos. Don’t ask me what it is.
