No body said he understood business, just a paycheck. Hey! Brainiac! Romo is paid by a network, not an NFL team or the the NFL. Seriously! We can play this game all day. Should the pediatric neurosurgeon who fixes baby brains make in a year what you make for 3 quarters? No, but it’s a market and you make what the market says. Stfu

This is an example of why some athletes we adore as players ruin their platform of opinion on certain subjects when they open their mouth. Just play the game and worry about yourself. With that said, love ya mike keep catchin stuff.

If they are willing to pay it then it is none of your business Michael. It is what the market will bear. You young socialists don’t get that concept.

Dude the vet minimum is like 500k a year, right? How is that not enough to play a game? Supply and demand. That’s why he is getting $20 mil a year.

So hypocritical the same people who get mad whenever athletes get paid or want to negotiate for more are the same ones happy as ever Romo got paid. You guys can't even pretend to be consistent.

No he doesn't have a point. What league players make and what CBS pays a announcer has zero to do with each other.

You’re worth what someone’s willing to pay you. Unless you collectively bargain your way out of that.

He should be happy. The better the announcers = higher ratings = more revenue for the league = more money for the players. What a dumb ass. I like his play but he’s a giant douche.

Do you really believe the announcers matter that much??? People watch for the product on the field not the blabbers in the booth.

Of course announcers matter. Ever suffered through a game with Beth Mowen in the booth?

MT13 sounds real tough on Twitter. Then you hear him speak IRL. Of course he doesn’t care if the CBA is signed. He already got his

Maybe Michael Thomas should go be an announcer if that’s what he wants to do. It’s called America.
