I am writing this post even though super bowl ring wearing Reggie Bush could probably care less. Five years ago Reggie Bush accepted money or gifts from a sports agent. This was against the rules of NCAA football, but not against the law. Now he is one of the best running backs out of all the NFL players. The Heisman committee after years of inaction wants to take this on-the-field won award away from him, because he accepted money from an agent. I don’t think they should be able to take it away from him unless he broke a law which he didn’t.

Age limits for sports
Age limits for sports vary depending on the sport:
NBA basketball is 19
Major league baseball 16
NFL is 18
Tennis has no age limit
Limits are good for very physical contact sports like football. I think tennis and some other sports should have a limit too because you need a certain amount of maturity to be a professional athlete. Additionally, professional franchises would be depending upon the guardians of underage professional athletes for the fulfillment of their contracts which could add more problems than there worth. Even though there aren’t very high limits or no limit on baseball or tennis there aren’t many 16 year olds in major league baseball, and very rarely in tennis (with questionable results if you think of Jennifer Capriati).
