*they're

I had that initially but grammarly failed me

They are making the university more money than all of that......fitz is also a top 3 paid strength coach lol. Pretty sure he makes like 600k.

Like i asked before, would you be ok if you didn’t make any actual money at your job, but you had of your expenses covered excluding car, car insurance, phone, social life.

This is a fallacious argument, Hank.

These kids aren’t at “a job”. They are at school.

I made no comment about paying players. Just that his point about the declining value of a college education was accurate. Which is something I care about. And I would think you would too if it wasn't presented in an argument about paying players.

Imagine how much more devalued it would be if college were free for everyone and treated as a basic human right...... oh wait sorry not trying to get political in the RF

 

[Bassmaster_Vol]

Using the knee as a "shock" technique will backfire and overshadow the message they are trying to convey. That has always been PETA's problem, too political. I love animals. More than humans in most cases, but I also eat animals(not pork but chicken, beef, fish etc). I have nothing against hunting either, as long as you harvest and eat what you kill. Those a-holes that trophy hunt in Africa need to be gored. That's my 2 centavos.

I will now spend the balance of my afternoon unliking any of your posts that I have like because lulz.

Mine are still plenty fresh

TWSS?

You can't even -gift- people sums of money (legally) without taxation man.

up to 14k you can.

There is the Annual Exclusion of $15k per year
There is also the Lifetime Exemption of $11M

If you max out your annual exclusion, you can still continue to give “tax free”... it just starts hitting your lifetime exemption on the first $11M of your estate.

The “A holes” in Africa hunting there are the reason there are still animals to hunt in Africa. Educate yourself before saying stuff like that.

Hunters money in Africa has kept poachers from wiping out entire herds.

Wrong. Educate YOURSELF.

 

[Glitch]

I hate you

 

[Volbucky]

Wrong. Educate YOURSELF.

I’ve been there and seen it, so I have. Stop showing your ignorance of the subject.

You literally have the biggest wildlife conservation hero ever in your avatar and you’re talking out of your ass.

Exactly.

Make college free for everyone?

Degrees won’t be worth the paper they’re printed on.

 

[SoilVol]

Wrong. Educate YOURSELF.

He's right. You're not. Wildlife in Africa is either valueless or detrimental to the people in Africa. With highly regulated and expensive hunting, it give wildlife value and they manage populations to continue to generate tourism and income for their area. They can pay anti-poachers and wildlife managers to protect reserves. Without that demand, wildlife directly competes with livestock and cropland.

Maybe the people who participate are a-holes, but the system is inherently good. Where the system isn't in place wildlife struggles. Countries that have outlawed hunting or are in civil war have struggling wildlife, because there's 0 incentive to protect and manage them. Also, no, wildlife picture tours don't generate enough to keep a non-hunting system going without additional funds from governments.

The most amazing irony of this discussion. I have his biography in my lap waiting for this plane to take off.

"I'm going to eat this entire elephant. What of it?"


"Tastes like chicken..."

 

[HankHill]

This is a fallacious argument, Hank.

These kids aren’t at “a job”. They are at school.

Yet you are claiming that they are “getting paid” for something they have signed a multi year contract to do.

Other students get scholarships and grants and are allowed to earn whatever money they want.... we literally had a walk on on roster who owns a multi million dollar landscaping company out of Georgia. Just Bc you are on an athletic scholarship shouldn’t take that opportunity away from you.

VQ podcast stated Nike will be putting double stripes on pants next season. For anyone who cares about that stuff.

Which one? I'm on Theodore Rex (Part 2) but loved The Rise of Theodore Roosevelt (Part 1)

Yup, grad school will become college and there will be an even higher form of education after that..... hell eventually maybe we can just go to school as a career and not even have jobs wouldn't that be NEAT...... I mean a basic human right!!!!

Clowney.. he could’ve played in the NfL immediatley. Eric berry, trey smith, Trevor Lawrence, cam newton could’ve, there’s actually a lot out there.

I don’t see the harm in being able to enter yourself in the draft after high school and at Any point In college... if you don’t get drafted, then you can come back or sign with a college.

 

[Bassmaster_Vol]

We have called our shot...

Those that participate are HUGE A Holes and you guys act like they run perfect conservartory systems in third world countries. All that money that rich dicks pay to kill majestic creatures goes right into protecting preserves? LOL. And I'm the ignorant one. Cool.

I didn't say it should be free. It shouldn't. I do think there's way too much emphasis by employers making it a requirement to get most jobs though. And that trade school is way undervalued by many employers too.
