Nice read here:
If $55K is a joke, Cowboys' veterans are punch line - NFL - CBSSports.com Football (http://www.cbssports.com/nfl/story/14045916/if-55k-is-a-joke-cowboys-veterans-are-punch-line)
And $54,896 is an uppercut to his bank account. Given the size of his contract, it might not seem to be. But add up the taxes, the outlay for agents and other representatives, and he surrenders at least 30 percent of that $8.3 million. Tally the financial support he may be expected to provide for family members, and ... well, no one will feel sorry for him, but if his body wears out before he gets another deal, he won't remain a rich man unless he is very, very prudent.
LOL "He might get hurt and only be left with a million dollars! Oh my God his life will be ruined!"
