I'm not entire sure "playing" is the right word there all by itself. I'd change it to "playing a child's game with lots of nap time". There are more rules protecting players in the NFL than Pop Warner. Considering the WSJ proved the average player is actually only "playing" less than five minutes per game while he just stands around the rest of the three hours and fifteen minutes on the air, these guys are indeed pretty darn lucky.
I appreciate Chicago players that begin competing within the city's sports organizations and stay with these teams throughout their careers.

I go back to the money. Smith has made roughly 4.25 million in his NFL career.
600 to Smith is the equivalent of $14 to my salary in the same time frame.
I think I can stay out of an altercation over $14.

My point exactly... You have a little bit of "wisdom", this clown Geno doesn't.... SMH...
I agree with you though, you'd think you'd be able to dodge that "dark cloud" for as much as they get paid.
