They work their asses off? You mean working out at the gym and track and practicing the game? For full time million dollar salary?
I understand that he should get paid, and there’s nothing wrong with wanting the contract extension, but I don’t feel sorry for them because there is a three day walk through at the facility after a four month layoff from their job..
**** yeah they work their asses off. They don't get there just by "working out at the gym." If that's all you think it takes, probably explains why you're not a professional athlete.
