I understand what you are saying, but that is too “Democrat” for my book. They are adults and certainly many are doing fantastic with their money. In every walk of life, a certain percentage are going to screw up. We cannot have an even more nanny state then we have already.

I would not advocate some law but perhaps the leagues and union could agree to pro player salaries can be paid as an annuity instead of a huge lump sum.

Interesting. Would you think that it would be too “Democrat”
if associations of successful ex-pro athletes help to guide young
pros in investing some of their new found, instant wealth? That
sounds pretty shrewd don’t you think?
