I am writing an editorial. Here it is:
College athletes should be paid
By Max Steele
Did you know that the NCAA makes $1 billion a year and none of the money goes to the players! The NCAA gets most of the money you pay when you go to a college sports game. Even the seats you buy and also the food! Isn’t that unfair for the players! We need to change that! If college athletes are in a video game shouldn’t they get paid by the company that makes the game? Sadly the answer is no. Not just that but it will motivate players to work harder and you know what that means! Teams will be way better which is good for the NCAA because that means more people will go to games because when players are better people will enjoy it more! That means the ncaa will make even more money.Just like I said it will motivate players but the big questions am I motivating you?Ok! I will tell you 1 more thing.There is one slight problem with the NCAA paying the players that could affect everything we just talked about! If they do, the coaches will be paid less! They will not like it as much to be paid less!

Max – you have made some really great arguments in your editorial. I think that paying NCAA players is a really interesting topic and something that should be discussed. I like that you had numerous reasons why you believe that the players should be paid. Each one helps to convince the reader of your beliefs.
Great job!
