Doesn't ESPN plaster names and images (likeness) everywhere to promote there games? "tune in Satruday to see Tim Tebow and the Florida Gators battle the Citadel"
Who takes the proceeds for the use of Tim Tebow to promote a television event?
Can't Sam Keller collect proceeds from ESPN based off anytime his name was ever mentioned? Or does ESPN fall under the news category? News with benefits.
Shouldn't amature athletes forefit the right to benefit on the use of their likeness when they accept full scholarships to an NCAA institution? Which is a fancy way of paying the athletes.

I think their all F'd in the head.
