Every one of them would walk of their job in a second with no notice, or thought of their co-workers if someone just offered to double their pay much less offered them 20 million.

my job is not my team.
it is likely a company that would sell out if they had an offer.

if you do not see the difference ...

Depends on where I was playing.

If I played at a program where I knew I could play a game pretty risk-free, then yes, I would likely play.

If I played for a Tier 2 program that had to scratch and claw its way to a playoff, then was taking on a brand team, I would likely think twice about playing. Also, whatever position I played would play into it as well.

For example, if I was a first round grade at QB at a Tier 2 program and we had to play Bama in the first round, I sit. Not risking my draft status on a cheap shot that I know wouldn't get called.

LOL. For those who may downvote my post, there is a thread on MSB currently where a Bama fan is posting a GIF bragging about a cheap shot on the OU QB that was blatant and wasn't called.

That is why I sit and protect my family. Frick this WWE crap CFB has become. At least get paid when this crap is going on.

Im sorry, im just not ok with players quitting on their team for the last game of the season. I do lose respect for guys that do so. I understand LF7 situation, where he was already nursing an injury. But many of these guys are completely healthy yet still refuse to play. I dont get it.

See my post above then go the MSB board.

This is why players sit. I don't blame them.

I wouldn't risk injury while not getting paid.
