@DUiagalelei It’s a business decision only for those who won’t progress enough to make it to the nfl. If you have to have the money in year 1 or 2 of your college career, not seeing the bigger picture in year 4 or 5, the big picture is being lost.
@louietraub@drgregpoland Sorry, man. It’s awful. This guy is a vaccinologist that apparently had it happen. Hoping something happens with it. Apparently we can’t file for help with the National vaccine injury compensation program , because it’s not considered a vaccine.
@drgregpoland what do we do about tinnitus after the moderna vaccine? Are there any studies going on? I understand you also unfortunately had the side effect. It’s been since March for me, and it’s no better.
Conservatism is about keeping the federal government small, and letting the state and local governments make more of the decisions that pertain to their constituencies. Greg Abbott is at the state level. Don’t create false hypocrisy to increase division.
@SharksTennis@NessaLock74@vika7 Having pictures and video of her taken is explicitly her job. Playing tennis is as well, but if it were only the tennis, it wouldn’t be televised, she wouldn’t have endorsements from Nike, Wilson, citizen, etc. why did they choose the image, because it displays their logo.
@SharksTennis@NessaLock74@vika7 Never said she was public property, but the reason they pay her is to take pictures of her, any way they want. Let them take pictures and collect your check. Complaining about what picture they choose seems ungrateful.
@SharksTennis@vika7 You are right, i didn’t word that well originally. It’s not necessarily for elites to get rich, but it is a vehicle for people to become elite (Uber rich).
@SharksTennis@NessaLock74@vika7 Most of the backlash has been over calling her an elite. It’s the definition of an elite. To me the appearance of complaining about exactly why she has been paid millions is a little misplaced. She said she wasn’t complaining after the fact, but the complaints are there.
@NessaLock74@SharksTennis@vika7 That’s not my point. My point is that she gets paid gross amounts to allow people to watch her play tennis, take pictures of her playing tennis, take video of her playing tennis. Curiosity about picture selection is fine, complaining about their choices is a fruitless venture.
@PaulDLC88@vika7 I didn’t gripe about anything. Just responding to lash back about caller her elite. She was complaining about the quality of pictures taken, wondering how they are chosen, or why they are chosen. I think it’s the price you pay to play tennis and let them take pictures.
@johnyet1@NessaLock74@vika7 So it doesn’t create multimillionaires? She is a very down to earth person, it’s the way society treats athletes and actors and musicians that is the problem. We give them billions for working hard, but teachers, nurses, etc work hard at what they do and struggle to survive.
@SharksTennis@NessaLock74@vika7 So how does a teacher or a nurse or a firefighter break through? Doesn’t everyone deserve to be able to break through? If a teacher breaks through, she might make 100k a year as a principal. If an athlete or actor or singer breaks through, they become elite. It’s just that simple
