Winston and JSA

Ian, I know you have thoroughly researched the alternatives you describe, but to someone who is a layman in that area, it seems like there would be all sorts of lawsuits by college athletes desperate for their fair share, especially when the point came when they experienced injuries, 'failure to live up to potential' or 'Winston/Manziel syndrome'. Lots of hail mary lawsuits due to all the subjective assigning of value.

...congrats regarding your Giants.

On the other topic, I'm sure you're right. It's really a bummer when nothing can ever seem to get done here for sake of the "law", red tape, etc. My old roommate went back to school a few years ago for urban planning at MIT. He didn't for one second consider working in the US because NOTHING GETS DONE! I get it, some of this red tape and lawyering is necessary, but when it stalls things completely it's beyond counter productive. I think they built the original Bay Bridge in about 3 years start to finish. The 2nd (half of it) took about 12 of 13... and the delays for things as stupid as whether or not to have a big/signature tower and suspension span end up doubling, quadrupaling the budgeted costs due to change orders and rising steel prices. Seems simple enough--- do you due dilligence and then just DO. I wish the same applied for NCAA reforms.
