Or how nice they are? Or how genuine they are?  None. They are drafted and paid to play football. Its the NFLs job to market the teams and players as entertainment. Its not a players job to go out and do that. If some player is a jerk, but does his job on the field you still buy a ticket, you still watch the game, you still spend the money.  Maybe not on him but as a team you do.This isnt like any other consumer industry.  You cant compare it to anything else outside of sports.Im happy to see players more conscious of the business side of it. You want nice guys that didnt care about the business? go talk to fuzzy thurston and ask to see his SB II ring.</blockquote>
