There are few levels in which you have to pass in order to get to professional, and the best one to watch has to be college for basketball, and football.
These two sports are the top watched sports for men's college and it is really great watching it. Unlike the professionals, all of the players aren't getting paid and they are playing so one day they can be professionals. It is great watching them because of how much they really put on a show and because of their determination for it.
I have been watching a lot of college football this year and it is crazy watching how these players differ from the pros. Watching the pros play sometimes is very bad like how they are not giving it their all because they are already there and already getting paid. These guys have taken some spots from guys that actually really want this not for the paycheck, but for the pure thrill of being there. Don't get me wrong, there are some showboaters in college, but it happens mostly in the pros.
Watching a Pistons game a few nights ago, I saw some players flopping all of the place. It was terrible because you can easily tell who was giving their all and who wasn't. it's sad to see this because again they don't care about anything but the paycheck. I think it's horrible that these guys that are getting paid to flop are taking spots from those that actually want to do something. Now watching teams like Kentucky or Kansas, these kids are going balls to the wall trying to have everyone try to get noticed over the others. Also teamwork is a lot bigger in college over pro because of the pros having everyone be ball hogs and not like college at all. In the pros, there are some players that like to keep it to themselves. Throwing up shots like Steph Curry is one of the examples not saying he's a ball hog, but that's an example.
College sports are also a lot of fun because of the student section. No matter where you go at a college game, you are going to here that section just going crazy. The cheering of the student section, especially for a primetime game, is when they just don't sit down during the whole game. They are just going nuts cheering for their team and is really cool to be apart of/watch.
I really do believe that college sports are better to watch because of the push that the college players are all striving toward greatness. They are striving to be the players that get paid for playing the sport that they all love to play. This has been a fun article and think that these are some reasons why that college sports are better to watch than pro.
