FOOTBALL SMOOTBALL, WHO GIVES A FLYING, FLIPPING BLEEP about some overpaid oversized goons who throw a ball around?

ALL PLAYERS IN PRO SPORTS ARE OVERHYPED AND OVERPAID.

About as many people who care about sucking up bees with a shop vac. :rolleyes:

Not quite...:wink:
Is that your work uniform ? If so, what do you work as ?

I fear this may be a moment where you tell me what your job is and it is really obvious, then I will look as thick as two planks of wood... No change there then :laughing:

I like to watch high school sports, enjoyed seeing our nephews and neices play baseball, football, soccer, etc. Pro's play mainly for the money, high schoolers play because they love the game.


BIG DIFFERENCE.

I volunteer as a junior firefighter. Yes, in the picture the blue uniforms we are wearing (well, the girl next to me doesn't have her uniform shirt on, just the undershirt) are called "work uniforms", but in the picture I'm also wearing my protective coat.

So, no pros ever started out playing in HS? None of these innocents ever dream of 'the pros'? What if your pure, angelic nieces and nephews made it to the big time? Would they, too become money-hungry fiends the day they take their first paycheck for playing the game they love? At what point do they become demons? Where is that line, JD? The first million? The first hun thou? How about the first ten thou? The first hundred dollar bill? The first autograph? The first time someone stuffs a camera in their face and tells them they are a god? The first time they believe that? Where is the turning to the dark side point? Pros are hardly innocents, but scum of the Earth is a tad overdoing it, IMHO. The same for suggesting every brat in HS just loves the game, and never dreams of making millions at it. :rolleyes:

Once again JD - the attitude and broad-brushing is plenty loud enough, but the substance is kinda lacking. Respectfully said, of course. :laughing:
