Playing any athlete 50 minutes without rest is unethical and bragging about it on social media is a bit nutty. Reminds me of that same social media person bragging about Appel playing with a stress fracture.
It’s a player safety issue and player safety is more important than wins and losses. It’s one of the MANY reasons I have no problems with NIL; it is long overdue.
So all marathons are unethical? Or, for that matter, soccer matches, or tennis matches, or …?
And, in any case, any game refereed by Missy is guaranteed to have several rest periods when she “goes to the monitor.”
Also, not sure that NIL is the answer to the problem you perceive, since I imagine that an athlete being able to point to incredible endurance probably does more to increase NIL value than the opposite…
