This is just starting to suck...

A couple of days ago, beloved Reggie Bush suffered the consequences of accepting cash payments while at USC by forfeiting his Heisman trophy. And apparently that act has come others to forward. Next up, and perhaps even more disheartening, is Sir Charles Barkley's recent admission of improper payments while at Auburn. I mean, I wouldn't say I'm surprised that this happened (how could you be with previous incidents like this), but Chuck has been so open in punishing people that I at least thought he could stay out of trouble until his entertaining post-NBA career. But, at least Charles let the world know of his wrongdoings with a bang. It wouldn't be Barkley without some controversial quotes, such as "If a guy wants to borrow money from an agent because he's poor, what's wrong with that...Most of the players I know borrowed money from agents". All of these incidents lead me to think that maybe it's about time the NCAA stops milking every dollar from college athletics, and gives the players a little bit more than a weekly stipend. If a normal college football fan can sell a jersey to someone else, why can't Georgia WR A.J. Green do the same with one of his?? That's a debate for another time, but in the meantime, keep being you Sir Charles:
