The value of recreation is well known. Downtime is necessary

Everyone must have fun time. So long as it is not immoral or illegal, it's okay. Efforts to limit injury of football players have been made over the years. Not everyone walks away with head injuries. No helmets, leather helmets, hard helmets, facemasks, the work on improving them continues.

It is not that we are doing nothing. We have a bunch of Edisons working on the projects when we need a Tesla.

That you think a Mizzou degree is worthless is also telling. It is not a token offering. The stipend is to cover legitimate expenses. Nobody forces the players to accept the scholarships they receive, they are certainly entitled to seek an academic scholarship and be able to work an outside job when they want, so they have entertainment money. These players who want to commit crimes were failed by their parents, and you want to put the blame and the responsibility on the school? Not appropriate. Don't pass your guilt for enjoying the events onto the school. Maybe you should start volunteering some time in your community to keep those young men from ever starting down that path?
