Q. Who is responsible for the high cost, high visibility nature of intercollegiate sports?
A: You are. Every time you or your family or friends watch a college game on television, buy college apparel with logos, purchase a ticket to the game, or otherwise participate in a college sports activity, you vote for the current system because the current system reflects the active and engaged enthusiasm of Americans for their college sports. —John V. Lombardi —Reality Check: The Enemy Is Us: Cost Reduction in College Sports (Inside Higher Ed)
Not guilty, as charged.
