Quote:It's that time of year, but I am always amazed at the greed of these guys.  They still play a game.  They did not help the league get to the cash cow it is now why should they take so much of the profits.  These guys nor their fathers were even born yet.  I wish I could hold my company for ransom with the rest of the employees demanding profit sharing.

 

Yea right.

 

They should feel blessed with the god given ability to be lucky enough to play in the NFL.

 

Stop acting like spoiled children.  It's like a he said she said.  Hell these guys make more for playing one bleeping game of football than I will in my lifetime probably.

 

Remember that ......one bleeping game.  It is ridiculous.

 

Steps off soapbox so the ......well you know crowd can chime in.

You get paid what you are worth. So because Von Miller/his agent understands economics, even just in his own personal situation, he is a greedy little punk? No. Other teams would pay him more than his Denver asking price if he were a free agent... This league is about passers, protecting passers, and pass rushers/defenders. Very few people in the world can do what any of the position groups can at an elite level. That is why they get paid so much, that and the revenue the NFL generates allows it. So good for him, and any other player who gets paid. I love whats left of the free market, you should too.
