The truth is, about 99 percent of college athletes will be trading their uniforms for white and blue collars upon graduation, and will not be cashing any NIL checks, so perhaps those who do could chose a quicker route, one that does not include a campus and class, to the bank. When was the last time you saw a team from The University of North Carolina at Pembroke on television? I know, I know, the players do the work while the universities swim in the television dollars they produce. We now have something called NIL вЂ“ Name, Image and Likeness вЂ“ which has made amateur athletics amateur in name only as participants can cash in on their sweat and ability.

I fear my growing ambivalence is a result of the changing landscape of collegiate athletics, which is drifting aimlessly in the direction of the professional products, at least on the gridiron and the basketball court where green is everyoneвЂ™s favorite color. I am sure that is part of it, but also think it is just a tiny fraction. I did a self-examination, wondering if my malaise was the product of 22 months of the new reality forced upon us by covid, which has rearranged our lives and not for the better. But I know myself better than to think that I have ascended a rung or two on the maturity ladder. I would like to think my indifference is because I have at my advanced age gained a better perspective about what is and is not important in life, and that it is just a game.

Having seen this movie before, instead of being angered early on by the lackadaisical performance of my Tar Heels, I became resigned to their fate, which on this night was an 85-57 defeat.ДookвЂ™s last-second defeat two hours later provided a bit of salve for the wound, but again, I found it strangely unfulfilling. While watching Tuesday night as my alma materвЂ™s basketball team was quickly being dismantled by the Miami Hurricanes, a strange sensation washed over me. May the Creator bless and keep you, may his grace and mercy abound to you and may you find cause each day to be thankful for life and celebrate love wherever it is truly found.ДOUGLAS: NIL, portal making games a tough watch I ask all to be in prayer that lives be saved by taking your spot and getting the shots!ДЄs these county employees spend the holidays with families and loved ones may the star heralding the birth of the Christ child, the brilliant glow of the menorah of Hanakah, the warmth of the Kwanzaa Kente cloth and whatever source of light and good you attach your spirit and faith to, beam joy to this world.

God has been with America thru 800,000 deaths and He has had a Special Forces Savior Team camped out at Robeson County Health Department since day one. You have literally been a host of angels personally for everyone who came to you. They have done so with light in their eyes, hope in their voices and faith in their inner souls. The professionals here have carried the citizens of our county thru a time of death, sorrow, fear, distrust and animosity. Then there is that special group that my dear friend Bill Smith has the pleasure of working with every day вЂ“ the Robeson County Health department.

You have kept our utilities working when there werenвЂ™t people working. You have kept our public domains clean and well cared for. We have sent our children to you to learn this year at one of the most challenging times in generations. You have governed our affairs and been the care takers of our public trust and funds. You have worked to keep us safe and protected. Happy Holidays from citizens of Robeson County. To all employees of the County of Robeson, North Carolina
