Isn't it crazy how NFL players get mistreated compared to other athletes?

fukk the contracts they get while playing. Look at the scraps they get for a pension. I'm cool with with a few cats who play(ed) in the nfl and MLB. My boys who played for the Rams and colts during their SB runs get less than what I make monthly. Now look at Stephen Drew and he'll be getting between $5-8k monthly for his pension. I can only imagine what JD is gonna get when his time is up. Last time I saw their other brother who only made it to the bigs for about a yr or two laughed his ass off at nfl players during the lockout because even he will be getting more than them or equal and has 85% less of the damage to his body and psyche

Yeah it's a joke

The nfl union is weak because there is no other option, no minor league system nothing/

Baseball has triple a etc can go play in Japan, hockey has ahl and khl and Swedish league, basketball has euro league, china, etc., nfl only cfl where the max salary is 500k

Pretty much what I was going to type props

Its fukking disgusting what NFL owners are allowed to get away with

Spare me the fukking "they still get paid bullshyt" the biggest problem is that they are not paid what they deserve

Just by the nature of the sport, a star or average-to-good football player is more easily replaced than a star or average-to-good basketball player.
