Football Team? No Way

Does UNCW need a football team? No of course we dont need one, adminstrators at UNCW have been doing just fine for years without dealing with the hassles an added sport would bring. Besides costing huge amounts of money to build a football stadium, there is already enough construction on campus, to add to that would drive current students (myself included) insane. Dont get me wrong, the construction will result in an even more aesthetically pleasing campus, but the noise pollution it brings can sometimes be overwhelming. Also, to build a stadium, there need to be a place to put it, the sports area seems a little crowded to me, i wouldnt know where to begin to look.

Like i said before, financially, i dont think football is the right thing to do right now, we need to focus more on academics rather than sports. Better teaching equipment, nicer desks, and the list goes on. My highschool has better technology than some of the buildings on campus, although the newer buildings are quite tech savvy, im talking about buildings like Morton and Bear.

Finally, having a football team means tailgaiting for students, and tailgating leads to drinking...mass drinking, and mass drinking could potentially lead to deadly riots. These riots could be the result of college kid stupidity when they are drunk and someone could easily be killed. Therefore lowering the reputation of UNCW campus saftey, decreasing popularity and application rates would drop.
So lets wrap this up, my main arguments include:

• Finances
• Construction
• Riots

Those are the reasons why UNCW should not have a football team.

P.S.-I secretly would love a football team
