The guy got an extension based on lobbing up a prayer across midfield.



Your mother's a whore.
That's far too respectable a profession to impute to the entity which spawned that poster.

Yes, in a sense you are right and when we compare them to teachers or firefighters, you are very right.

But, if we think of them as entertainers with a unique set of talents with a limited shelf life (average nfl career = 3 1/2 years), then I see it differently. Plus, they not only have a limited span during which they can produce at a high level, but it can all be over on one play, even on the practice field.

And when teachers and firefighter's can fill up stadiums with people willing to pay hundreds and in some cases thousands of dollars to watch them perform, they will be paid similarly.

It's a long off season and the little guy was getting over hydrated*. He will be going back to get ready for the season soon.

*he a has "going problem" but don't tell anyone. He's a little sensitive about it.

That was pretty much my point. Thanks for restating it.

Without teachers, we would be in the stadium not understanding what we are watching. They are absolutely underpaid.

Nice derail, by the way.
