Would $500 thousand not be enough? A million? You are telling me that being paid $7 million to chase a black puck around the ice is worth more than a police officer or a teacher? You are exactly the type of person I am talking about. People have lost all reality. The sporting landscape is broken and most people don't give a rats ass and continue to feed it instead of trying to fix it. The CFL isn't perfect, but it is the closest to what I believe is fair for a professional athlete. In fact I think they under pay most of their athletes. If players have to sell their own mothers for a $10 million NFL contract than I suppose their greed for money is greater than their family. That is on their conscience. Enjoy forking over $200 for the new Flames third jersey! Chris Butler thanks you!

How long have they trained to be a police officer or a teacher? a few years maybe. These greedy hockey players have trained their entire lives for the most part to get to the level they're at. If any one wants to complain that they're paid too much go see if you can even come a little bit close to what they can do. With a few years commitment I know I could be a teacher or cop but an NHL player not a chance even if I trained my whole life.
