The average rookie does make that much by comparison, and the average rookie does not last long in the NFL and usually has to live out the rest of thier life dealing with the work related injury.

..well, boohoo.. is called insurance...
..health insurance...disability insurance...

..with the money they make in one year, which is equivalent to 10 times the average salary in the U.S., they sure can afford the 1,500 a month for independent insurance...

..electricians get electrocuted, police get shot, firefighters get burnt... it's called life.. not because you are on TV playing a game it means that you are above life...
