The Bill Simmons Podcast
A Holiday Check-in on Anything and Everything With Chuck Klosterman

spends time watching the game thinking it's kind of weird that I'm watching this 33 year old guy play baseball like this is weird that an adult is doing this for a living and he's making more than everybody in my town or whatever we don't think about those things so maybe we just won't think about it I mean because the games themselves are still excellent I mean I every week there's a bunch of games that are interesting although I gotta say I was a little disappointed I really did for a while think

Ja. Ja. One of the greatest experiences of my college football watching life. Not that I have any relationship to the military. It's just that you're so used to watching that game and convincing yourself, well, it's raining and the guys are in the stands and it's the only game on. It would have been amazing if that game would have mattered. But it was probably a hopeless dream.

That's probably true. And I think that with this new influx of new money coming in, I think this change should be made. I don't think anyone who goes to a college, who's attending a college, should have to pay money to watch that team play. It should be free for any student to go to these games while they're there.

And if you graduate from a university, as long as you keep proof of their student ID or whatever, you should be able to attend games of that team for the rest of your life for $10. Right. There's no reason if all this money is coming in. Like when I was in college, football games were free. It was a Division II school. They're not anymore, but they were then.

That seemed like a completely reasonable thing. It seems very weird to have someone pay tuition to go to an institution, but you can't see the goddamn football team play unless... That makes no sense. And it seems like if you graduate from there and you've paid to go to college there, one of the benefits is for the rest of your life, you should be able to go to these games extremely cheaply.

And I think that not... Like now a university would hear this and they would be like, that's insane. Because like they would just think about the amount of revenue that they would lose. But think of the revenue over time. If you were essentially guaranteed that this will always be an essential thing in people's lives. Like, I think it would be good for society.
