Sapper, thanks for your service to the country.

To answer your question, I'm 27 and I would play for the US team that played over in Japan...and I'd do it today, for free...actually, I'd buy the plane ticket and the hotel room, too. So you just tell me which a$$ to kiss to play for 200K a year.

Of course these guys are making waaaaay too much money. I could make $7Mil last for a lifetime (5% interest is $350,000 annually before compounding, taxes), no problem, but that's not the point. The NFL is bringing in Billions of dollars (lots and lots of zeros) and that money's going in someone's pocket.

So I ask you, who's more deserving? Lance Briggs or Virginia McCaskey (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Virginia_Halas_McCaskey)

Oh I agree that the owners are making a crap load of money. I just think If player salaries would go down it would be a trickle down effect to us, the ticket buyers.

I know it will never happen so the point is mute.

By the way, you never have to thank me for my service.
