Heisman winner Johnny Manziel is under investigation for signing autographs for money, and faces suspension or worse if found guilty. Meanwhile, the NCAA and its member schools are making millions of dollars using the images and accomplishments of the "student-athletes". The rules and regulations are clearly discriminatory, as regular students are allowed many opportunities that are denied to athletes.

Yeah, God forbid that Johnny Manziel actually follow the rules. Because it's not enough that he has millions of fans, a free ride scholarship, invites to the NBA finals as LeBron's personal guest... he needs to be able to make money off his name too. Give me a break, Manziel could have just waited a couple years until he was a pro, and made all the money he wanted. No pity here for this spoiled little brat that's too good for the rules everyone else follows.

I hear all the time about how schools make all this money off these talented kids. Where's my share? These kids get a free education, how much is that for 4 years at Texas A&M - $100,000 or more? These kids get paid, they get their fair share and then some.
And as far as Johnny Football goes, he's from a very wealthy family. So money is not a huge issue for him.
