Unions are exactly what's wrong with this entire country right now. THERE, I said it!

-Without Unions, there are still entrepreneurs and workers.
-Without Workers... well, there will always be someone willing to work, so that's out.
-Without Entrepreneurs, there are no workers or Unions.

When a player comes out of college, and he's good enough, he enters the NFL draft. NFL basically gives him access to an established league complete with teams and fans and, and, nothing more. (The potential player hopes to join the League, not the League hopes to join the player.)

A team likes the way he plays and offers the player a chance to utilize his talent for money. Lots of it. (The player joins the team, for a fee, the team does not join the player.)

In steps the Union to take money from the player and convinces the player that they know more about what he needs and wants and should bargain on his behalf. For a fee... Now the player has his own wits and talents, an Agent, and a Union.

Oh, and the Union fights tooth-and-nail with the very League that extended an offer to play to the player! Again, on his behalf... HUH?

He could have taken his P.E. Degree and become a P.E. Teacher, but no... He now makes millions and signs autographs in exchange for colliding with other players and trying to get a stupid egg-shaped orb across a line. Or maybe he tries to prevent the orb from getting to the line.

I hate UNIONS!!!!

Now if the UNION just went out and bought a football team, we wouldn't be having this problem!!!
