[QUOTE="Bruce, post: 48928, member: 196"] No one has ever said that they are Gods -- and the pay structure is set by this $100s of Billion dollar industry. So you think that the billions made should simply be divided up amongst the owners -- and the players that you pay to watch should get some small pittance of the profits? Don't get me wrong -- I think the NFL is out of control, but it is not the players who are blackmailing taxpayers and demanding excessive windfall profits. A players career is generally pretty short -- unlike all of the professions you named above. Finally, very, very few players if any make it on God given talent -- making it to the next level after college takes incredible dedication and work. You can fantasize otherwise, but I can tell you it takes dedication to all levels of skill development to make it to the NFL. There are tons of guys with God given talent that never sniff a professional paycheck's ink. [/QUOTE]
