[QUOTE="Acal, post: 34155, member: 8048"] Couldn't be more wrong. I don't understand how you guys think that [I]all[/I] they play the game for is to get paid. That has to be one of the more stubborn things I've ever heard. Ever notice the touchdown celebrations? Ever notice how the players try to win Super Bowls rather than quit once they reach the playoffs? All that is because they're having fun. If they were doing it just to get paid, then they would just hand the ball to the referees after each touchdown and slack-off when the post season comes around. They get paid to obtain peace of mind. The money lets them know that if they do get hurt during a game and it ends their career, then they have the money to be supported. The players aren't thinking about getting injured on the field, they're thinking about catching the ball and getting in the endzone. They play to have fun and it just-so-happens that they also get payed a lot of money doing what they enjoy. [/QUOTE]
