I swore off pro sports except only casually if it happens to be on where I just happen to be; about the same time they started make ridiculous amounts of money to PLAY A GAME.
Now, I get that football has a lot of injuries and so do some other pro sports, but getting paid millions is nuts. No one except the quarterback should make more than $100k these days IMHO.
I sat this morning and looked over the Chicago Bears and their pay listing. It’s almost 9-million dollars going out to players who are no longer on the team.
An example...Lamaar Houston...now a free agent...has the Bears still paying 1.7 million coming in. C. J. Wilson still has $180,000 coming in, but he’s a free agent.
These are all people on some kind of millionaire welfare deal, where you are supporting some stupid business strategy that most Americans would just laugh about.
