I'm not sure what's more important than figuring out the eligibility of incoming student-athletes and giving them enough time to plan accordingly, but whatever it is, the NCAA sure seems to love doing that instead.
On a recent episode of The Giant Foam Finger podcast (which is itself a sub-podcast within the Pop Culture Happy Hour podcast but that's not important), hosts Stephen Thompson and Gene Demby discussed sports hatred and what makes us dislike certain sports figures with actual fervency. Roger Goodell comes up, naturally, and the hosts analyze what it is about the NFL commissioner that makes people wish him ill on a regular basis.
