NFL: Does this make any sense?

Matthew Stafford, who hasn't thrown a pass in the NFL, makes more money than three-time Super Bowl champion Tom Brady.

That's because Tom Brady is a humble man nod



But no, that doesn't make sense. I'm sure Tom rolls in the dough with royalties.

No it does not! That is one of the biggest problems in the NFL. The outrageous contracts that have to be given out just to sign unproven talent through the draft. There is no guarantee that Stafford will even take one snap in the NFL.

They need to limit rookie contracts in all professional sports.

I'm sure at the next CBA they will impose a rookie cap.

I don't know if the players would approve that even though it'll benefit the vets and true performers. The players are always looking at the short term.

I can't remember..but I do remember hearing something about him saying he didn't want any more money so they could spend it on better players for the team.

Yeah it is beyond rediculous. That's the only part of the NFL i don't
get. The NFL is far and beyond my favorite sporting event.

The vets want it the most. That means more money for them when their deals come up.

...and he's rolling in Gisele, too. thumbs up!

Mutha's right. The vets want a rookie cap. It will get done at the next CBA.


In other NFL news, the Jets gave Brett Favre his release, which means he's free to sign with another team. Great. That means all the Favre butt boys in the media will speculate on his return all summer long.
