My very first football game at "The Rockpile" in Buffalo. Before the AFL-NFL merger. My dad drove to the stadium. Parked in the street. Bought a six-pack from a grocery store, and a soda for me. What a great time.

If I read that correctly he will get 120 MILLION up front ... I can’t fathom the monies awarded in some of these contracts and HOW they are able to recoup it? I grew up with the NFL since the 70’s and I no longer follow any of it....priced out regular families from ever going to a game and the jumping into social issues has just soured me. Another faction of society that forgot where they came from , sad.
