The you didn't build that comment from Obama was directed and hard working small business owners and others who make honest livings owning and running businesses.

That's a far cry from people making millions of dollars and living lives most of could only dream of by virtue of nothing more than being really good at a game.



So there is no hard work involved in making it to the NFL? There are no jobs created by a lifelong dedication to perfecting ones trade? NFL players start perfecting their craft at 7 o 8 years of age and sacrifice a heaping pile to get where they are....just like those small business owners....except the risk involved in becoming a pro athlete is far greater than becoming a successful small business owner.......

I don't deny the hard work professional athletes put in.

But if you don't acknowledge the difference between their hard work to play a game and the hard work put in by the people who actually make this country work then you are being willfully obtuse.
