I'm loving this weekly sports segment! Pablo has a great sounding voice!

I thought NIL (name, image, likeness) was a good idea in the beginning (a mere 2 years ago) but it has so quickly gotten out of hand. The compensation being paid out by the collectives to student athletes is way too high, in my opinion, for young people who not too long ago were in high school. Too many college athletes are bouncing from school to school via the transfer portal year after year looking for bigger and better compensation. No loyalty to one school unless the school is a known powerhouse for the sport the student athlete plays in.

Here today. Gone tomorrow.

I know it's not the focus of many U.S. sports fans, but I hope you'll cover cycling at some point during these sports discussions, specifically races like the Spring Classics (in Europe), the Giro d'Italia, the Tour de France.

From September to January I will take my college football 🏈 One thing Pablo failed to mention is how NIL affects other sports. Women’s sports in particular. Women’s gymnastics 🤸🏼‍♂️ fun to go to their competitions!!

For someone who has given up the faith, it is good to have an experience.
