This is what happens when we let broads get an education

Hey, we need more Home Ec degrees out there. Cooking is an important skill as is learning how to iron their man's clothes and lay them out on the bed properly. Kid's lunches need to be made, furniture needs to be dusted, etc.

Exactly.  Its amusing when people are like "some of these athletes getting big NIL money aren't even that good!"  Like its suddenly new that an attractive/marketable athlete transcends their pure athletic ability.  (eg: Kournikova, Danica Patrick, etc..)

Capitalism!

Who cares.

Ah, it's opportunistic click bait parasiting off of an attractive woman being successful. No doubt this is an illuminating article.

Could be that the lady college athlete can make out better than their male counterpart in soccer, volleyball, etc and perhaps basketball.

Yeah, makin' out, hey?

Welcome to the party, pal

OK, you got me; poor choice of words. Make more money on NIL, but I think you all know what I meant.

Are you saying that the NY Post is sexist for highlighting that a female athlete can make a lot of money off her image?

No I'm saying that they are disreputable clickbait yellow journalists on their best day. Given the subject matter, I'm positive that I can rest assured that ignoring the link will provide me with the exact same amount of insight that I would have gotten had I clicked the link. All I miss out on is the Post's photo editor's selections scraped from either no-royalty Getty or Ms. Dunne's Instantgrams, both of which are available via google images without giving that cesspool of a rag a click.

This was all public knowledge last year when this came about. How much discourse was there when this first went through about Dunne, the Cavinder Twins, and other female athletes that had massive Instagram and TikTok followings? This feels like a big "who cares" topic.

How is this any different than Jesse Palmer on The Bachelor, Jim Palmer in his Jockeys, or David Beckham cologne ads? People parlaying sports success into greater media/marketing success is nothing new, and hardly exclusive to college women in the past year.

That's different.  Women shouldn't show skin above the ankle

Burkas.

[Uncle Rico]

Burkas.

I have to be able to see their faces, but beyond that, any good Christian never judges women based on their looks but on their ability to produce children.  That's why I only judge women based on hips

At least we may have more posts on the famous opponent alum threads.

I take it you don't like the NY Post.

Back in the day Hugh Hefner had his girls of the Big Ten, Pac -10 etc issues. Would have been interesting if NIL was available then.

Would have been the best OnlyFans marketing opportunity ever.
