Lol wtf, that sounds like treating football players like Americans do their mercenaries. They fucking honor the football team too? Do they get discounts and line cuts??
you don’t even know the half of it man, coaches and college recruiters will take football players out to restaurants, hook them up with girls, hell multiple investigations caught athletic staff buying cars for players. Especially in the southern united states, high school and college football is a state religion
To play devil’s advocate the south is just shitty like that and maybe having them rally around sports is the most benign option.
Short of dramatic overhauls, of course. But that takes time and money and this is the United States where time is just used to measure how long until the Rapture happens and money is for cops and military.
So again, distracting the confederates with football might be the least worst we get.

Pep rallies are mandatory events where they corral all the students into the gym to make them clap and cheer for the football team.
