John,
Maybe(but only maybe) teacher's pay would approach that of football
players, when as many people care about education as do about football.

Tom, that reminds me of a story that describes the situation pretty
well. Years ago, someone was criticizing Bear Bryant for making such a
big deal of football, when the purpose of a university is to teach.

Bear's reply was something like, "Yeah, but you know, it's awful hard to
get 90,000 people out on a Saturday afternoon to hear a chemistry
lecture."
