This might raise the hackles at NCAA headquarters.

Horn tooting time.  Didn’t i predict this about a year ago when this law suit first surfaced?  I’m not sure Ed O’Bannon will fall into the league of Curt Flood, but he is certainly going to be in that neighborhood.  The other thing that is going to be addressed in this law suit is the colleges acting as the minor leagues for the NFL and NBA.  The whole rule in the NBA where an american born player must attend college for one year is a joke and further puts the NCAA in a bad position for this law suit.

"If by a liberal, they mean someone who looks ahead and not behind, someone who welcomes new ideas, without rigid reactions, someone who cares about the welfare of the people, their health, their housing, their schools, their jobs, their civil rights, their civil liberties, someone who believes we can break through the stalemate and suspicion that grips us. Then I am proud to be a liberal.” John F. Kennedy

I knew this would get a response from you because you did predict this. Nice call, dui.
