Quote: It would help all of us if these so called social media sports personalities were forced to disclose their paid consultations with athlete agencies, etc.

 

What we have is PLAYOLA, where these kids are forking out their future NFL earnings by signing some PR contract to promote them ahead of the NFL selection meeting.
I don't know if "it would help all of us" but it is certainly happening and it would be interesting to see how much of it is happening/ money spent etc. Of course it's been happening for years. Athletes have paid publicists for decades.  Social media is just a new twist in the game.   While the hype machine is annoying - I don't have much trouble looking past it.

ABOUT US
The Jungle Forums is the Jaguars' biggest fan message board. Talking about the Jags since 2006, the Jungle was the team-endorsed home of all things Jaguars.

Since 2017, the Jungle is now independent of the team but still run by the same crew. We are here to support and discuss all things Jaguars and all things Duval!
