You said players' base salary doesn't cover 'all that free play before they get into the league'. Clearly, you think owners should pay players for the time they were NOT in the league.

Actually, I'm focusing on salary and benefits. Did you look at the link I posted?
Quote:SOME get a pension, not all.
True as far as it goes, but actually the majority of players (three years or more) qualify for a pension, while ALL players can contribute to a retirement annuity, which the NFL matches at 200%.
So, when will stop watching football games on television and stop supporting these greedy, immoral, heartless billionaires?

Oh bullshit, even after 3 years, very few players unless they make Brady status get shit after they leave.
Just like the cast of Happy Days was screwed and is still screwed.
My late mother got a real pension as a public school teacher, She was a teacher from the early 60s to the early 90s, and died in 2017.
Mice print is how actors, musicians, comedians, and sport stars get screwed.
