Tortious, you are extremely naive about the goings on behind the scenes in the NFL.

There are reports like this EVERY year from multiple teams.

I remember a report a few years ago where a team had prospects jog in place and catch tennis balls while a coach would whisper questions that were completely non-football related near them.

The Saints are actually pretty smart to try and get answers out of them that aren't scripted at all.

Sweet. Good for that team. I bet Jonathan Sullivan was great at that too.

so you would go clean the shitters after LSU homegames full time if it meant a $1,000 payraise, right?


Hell fricking yes I would.
If Auburn offered me $900 and LSU offered me $1000, I'd clean the fricking toilets at LSU.
If Burger King is gonna pay me $6.75 an hour and Wendys is offering $7.75 I'm gonna choose Wendys.
If Cincinnati offers me 15 million per season and New England offers me 10 million, I'm playing for Cincinnati.

So if you got paid $1,000 more than your current job in salary to scrub the shitters at LSU, you would do it?

may I ask what you do for a living?

They're your coach (possibly), that automatically earns respect. I think attitudes like yours are the reason they do this. To weed out the "I know im just out of college and you're about to pay me millions of dollars before i achieve anything, but you need to get on your knees and kiss my arse" attitude.




That is not the way the world works.



Since when has pro sports resembled in any way the rest of the world. You really are naive.

You might want to look up the definitions of psychology and sociology before you make yourself look stupid by trying to look smart.
