Why College Sports Are Just More Fun To Watch

I love both professional and college sports, but I believe that college players have a lot more to prove.

Why College Sports Are Just More Fun To Watch
Business Insider

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.

Dear Mom,

You took care of me and my brothers our entire lives and you still continue to! I will not be able to truly grasp all of the hard work that you put into this family until I create my own one day. But, I know that there are plenty of times I forgot to give you a simple thank you or an appreciative smile. I thank you for everything that you have done for me and will continue to do for me. Here are some examples of those times where you had my back and I forgot to pat your back for saving me:

College is hard. As people ages 18-22, we’re just trying to figure out what we’re doing with our lives, our careers, our eating habits, exercise routines, sleep patterns, and other necessities for adult life. We definitely don’t take proper care of ourselves; it’s basically impossible when we have essays, tests and readings due and somehow we’re supposed to eat right, exercise and sleep. We’re doomed to get sick. I have zero experience in science but when I get sick there are certain things I do to make myself better.

Now that it seems “talking” is the new way to date, and will stay that way until another idiotic term is used to describe the people who can’t settle down and just date someone, I feel as if it’s time to go over the unwritten rules of “talking.”

Rule 1. Having feeling without feeling.
