Not in profits. In revenue, certainly. But then again, it's also not apples to apples, because there aren't 32 college football programs or 32 high school football programs. There are hundreds or even thousands.

If there were hundreds of NFL teams, would they all make hundreds of millions in revenue? Not likely. I'm not certain that half the NFL teams in the league wouldn't make $100M in revenue if they weren't getting an equal split of the TV money, which tends to lean more towards larger markets anyway.

Not enough talented highschool players nor college players for that and thats why they dnt make as much

Correct. The argument isn't over why they make less. The fact is they make a ton of money with a vastly inferior on-field product compared to what others can see.

And they do that because Americans are obsessed with football.

Conceptually, some of his opinions are pretty sound and reasonable. He's just too easily baited by the left and goes off the rails quickly...

Man I’d be all for Ty’Son taking his spot… he would be the replacement for 2019 Mark Ingram in terms of ability in my mind, not the 2020 washed up one. Seeing him in action being a damn good back and seeing Justice in action with Justice playing a juggling act with a pass (which supposedly is his thing in addition to ST) makes me fully want Williams on this team over him

And to be completely honest and not to change the subject, I don’t understand whatsoever the logic is behind keeping an ST player over a player who has better overall talent. ST defenders are honestly a dime a dozen, unless the player is a legend talent like Matt Slater. We already have good ST defenders so this is a moot point altogether. But I’m keeping a better talent overall as a rookie over a guy who is beyond his second year in the league 24/7

its about who's active on gameday and if you're not gonna be active then what's the point holding onto you for depth's purposes

like the rationale is that justice hill is active and therefore will also contribute as a running back whereas tyson williams will not be active even if he's a better runner than justice because he doesnt play special teams and therefore is easy to deactivate on gameday

also just fyi williams isnt a rookie, this is his 2nd year with the ravens

I mean if you think taunting is instinctual, then we were certainly raised different ways, or at the very least, taught football very differently. I'll obviously be sleeping just fine. I'm not the one getting flagged and potentially fined for taunting. It's the players that will sleep with less money for lack of self control, not me.

It certainly wasn't me. You might think it was me because you misread what I wrote, but that's not on me. All I did was make the point that the NFL would make less money if the talent pool dropped, but it wouldn't diminish down to nothing or drop to like a million dollars a year in revenue.

College football and high school football have vastly lower quality of play. They both make gigantic sums of money off football. Hundreds of millions, if not more.

And I never said taunting was instinctual

Fuck no, Ben Shapiro is an expert at talking circles around people without making a rational point. He’s got plenty of mic drop moments but holy shit he’s a miserable fuck who sucks all the air out of the rooms every time he speaks, and nine times outta ten he could reach his point in less than half the words used, and also most of the time he’s just arguing to argue.

There are some rational points in there, it's just that most would disagree with them. But concur... very wordy, and the message typically gets lost in his inability to be succinct.
