I played 3 years of pro ball before injury, and coached as a grad assistant in college for 3 years after my pro days were over (as I knew they would be.) I was a lucky one in that I understood the value of an edumacation, and knew sports was only a temporary stop..

Plus, when I played 90% of the pros didn't make crapola $$$. It's a different sports world today. My biggest contract was for $25,000 a year, and most guys needed an off-season job to survive (which is why training camp was so brutal, in The Day; we needed to get back into shape since we had no "off-season" programs like today.)
Hell, I could coach your kid and hopefully influence him to seek a better way to live than that of an angry, bitter, old man who hates "Jews."
So I respectfully say you have no idea what you are talking about.
Many if not most college players would never have any college education experience if not for athletics, and many if not most don't have fathers at home. Pro players are the unicorns, not the norms. Unfortunately, they get the spotlight, not the regular, normal kids.
I do not believe kids from bad environments should just be thrown away because some angry white guy thinks so.
I knew you would get into this. take this anyway you want but I say you are a liar. black nfl players are degenerates. you call me old?? pro players made no money in the 50's early 60's. if you played then you would be around 80-90. you are a liar and you have to lie to make your point
Oh, my story is very true.
