Population of the US- 300 million

Number of active NFL players in the US: 1800

If you can make it to be one of those 1800, out of a country of 300 million, you are the most elite in your profession and why shouldn't you be compensated your fair-market value by an employer that is making money off of your blood and sweat and image and abilities?

Don't forget the average NFL career is 3 years long and a lot of those guys end up in regular jobs afterwards and most of the money they earn playing goes right back into the economy in the form of taxes and profits for Cadillac, DUBS, SONY, etc.
