This is the correct take
Just my opinion, but I’m not sympathetic to this argument at all.
Sometimes you leave a company and your friends that stay behind get better benefits a year later. You don’t get to go back and get an extra 2% tacked onto your 401k.
The players got their chance to play college football and made enough out of it to garner NFL looks. Will those in favor of this move come back in a few years and rally in favor of extra years for the players who these 23 and 24 year old men steal snaps on tape from? Do those guys get a chance later? NONE of these fifth year guys should be playing, whether once on NFL rosters or not.
Rules change. Institutions adjust to the times. Sometimes you get a bad break. The so called advocates for these athletes are only setting them up for failure later.
And just so we’re clear, this same brand of thinking is why we are on the verge of a 24 team playoff that will cause a decrease in interest in the regular season. Nobody wants to say “you should have made more plays.” Or “you shouldn’t have lost that game”
Participation trophy culture has infected CFB from the highest levels down and we have nothing but a complete and total lack of leadership on many levels to blame for it.

Regardless of your hockey team, this Stanley Cup Finals intro is absolutely unbelievable…
Ray Bourque interview, @TheKillers ‘All These Things That I’ve Done’ playing, Jon Hamm narrating… Just perfection. Made me tear up.
Extremely well done 👏🏽👏🏽

.@colecubelic interested in your thoughts on Oklahoma’s pre-snap/post-snap looks and how it affected the Bama O-line/pass-pro yesterday. Felt like they’d show one thing, Bama would check, and then they’d counter - I’ll hang up and listen.
