Reality TV World Message Board Forums
PLEASE NOTE: The Reality TV World Message Boards are filled with desperate attention-seekers pretending to be one big happy PG/PG13-rated family. Don't be fooled. Trying to get everyone to agree with you is like herding cats, but intolerance for other viewpoints is NOT welcome and respect for other posters IS required at all times. Jump in and play, and you'll soon find out how easy it is to fit in, but save your drama for your mama. All members are encouraged to read the complete guidelines. As entertainment critic Roger Ebert once said, "If you disagree with something I write, tell me so, argue with me, correct me--but don't tell me to shut up. That's not the American way."

"The NCAA ain't scared of Ed O'Bannon."
Just because the lawsuit (which has been in progress for four years) recently added football players to the roster...

...just because the former student-athletes are suing over use of their images in NCAA-themed and linked video games...

...just because the prospective damages are limited to the money made by the NCAA from those games...

...just because there are indications that a judge might be considering a ruling in O'Bannon's favor...

...that doesn't mean the NCAA ended their relationship with Electronic Arts out of anything other than their own free will and seeing a sudden total lack of desire for NCAA-themed gaming product in the public because surely they would never sell another copy again.

That's what the NCAA wants you to believe.

And if you don't, they'll sue you.

Also, concussions don't exist until the NCAA says so. Which they don't. So there.

1. "RE: The NCAA ain't scared of Ed O'Bannon."
Most recent ESPN article.

To go in depth, Drake Group study.

Our goal in this report is to provide information on whether NCAA restrictions on athletes’ free participation in the lucrative market for their images, likenesses and names is necessary either to uphold the principles of amateurism or to preserve the activity of intercollegiate athletics. The Drake Group is a national organization of faculty and others, many of whom have studied, participated in, and worked in the business of intercollegiate athletics over several decades.

Running scared.

For pay.

Wonder if that would disqualify them.
