政府的一組領導人通過了一項新計劃。這項計劃被稱為《保護大學體育法案》,旨在改變大學體育的運作方式。
Main Body
The plan helps the NCAA. The NCAA can now set limits on how much money players get. It also helps small schools get more money from TV deals.
該計劃有助於 NCAA。NCAA 現在可以設定球員獲得報酬的上限。它還能幫助小型學校從電視轉播協議中獲得更多資金。
Some big sports groups are not happy. They want to change the plan. Some people think these big groups will leave the NCAA and start their own league.
一些大型體育組織並不滿意,他們希望修改該計劃。有些人認為這些大型組織將會離開 NCAA 並成立自己的聯賽。
There is another problem. The plan does not say if players are employees. Some people want players to be employees so they can ask for more money. Other people say this costs too much money.
另外還有一個問題,該計劃並未說明球員是否為員工。有些人希望球員成為員工,以便要求更多薪酬;而另一些人則認為這樣成本太高。
Conclusion
The plan needs more votes in the government. It must get enough votes to become a law.
該計劃在政府中還需要更多票數。必須獲得足夠的票數才能正式成為法律。
