The pie is much bigger and the owners want more of it
To me, the bigger issues are drugs, concussions and injuries as well as taking care of former players.
The NFL uses you up and then spits you out as they bring in a new crop to replace you. Hard to get rich in a four year career
Yeah god forbid you make an average of something like 750K a year for four years and then have to get a real job.
Does seem like a lot doesn't it?
How much would you take never to walk again or to have the brain function of a child?
Similar risks are taken playing High School and College ball and they get paid nothing.
