Very familiar with that song. The irony of that song is that it's got a depressing sad ending which belies the title..
I'm a youngin and didn't get to watch a lot of the oldies. But from all the videos I have watched of players from those days you are absolutely correct. It's become all about money and less about the passion for the gameThis is a league of youngsters, what happened to the Bob Lilly's, mean Joe Greene's, Emmitt Smith, just keep the finger, get me back in their coach . Feed me feed me. Take me out I'm hungry. Can't practice it's too hot out. LOL this is not the NFL I remember. Yes I still love the game there's still heart emotion. But it's far and few. You know what I'm talkin about
I blame everything on social media.I hate to say it, but it's true. We turn into a bunch of freaking wimps.
I don't blame you. I look at my profession. Everyone I talk to in my profession is having a hard time finding workers including me. the ones they do find want $20 an HR start with zero experience. Social media has created an entitled generationI blame everything on social media.

I've had about 10 kids in the last few years tell me that they wanted a job, but wouldn't do anything but run the mower.I don't blame you. I look at my profession.

He can run it up the middle with no wiggle. He is what he is. A short yardage power back.What does the feed me sign have to do with it.
Zeke is still more old style than many RB’s. Because he can do it all.
It's the changing world, partner. I can't even enjoy watching bullridin anymore. Cowboy hats replaced by helmets. Chest protectors under shirts. The folks don't want sports to have an element of danger. I have to accept it ain't about what I want. It's about what the majority wants.
You know I saw a guy on the side of the road getting his flat tire replaced by a AAA guy. I just shook my head.
Yeah you’re right. Cooper and Zeke pulling themselves out every other play is ridiculous. We need a coach who will put a stop to that nonsense.

Huh?You know I saw a guy on the side of the road getting his flat tire replaced by a AAA guy. I just shook my head.
Yup. That's exactly what I'm going through. I specifically list must be good with ladders and heights in my job post. I hire the guys and they refuse to climb ladders. I'm not paying someone $20 an HR to hold things and cleanup. Ever since one of my best guys left for the union I've gone through people of every age group trying to replace him. So far 5 people have failed at the job.I've had about 10 kids in the last few years tell me that they wanted a job, but wouldn't do anything but run the mower.
I'm far from Rich. I'm in the poorer end of middle class. I work more hours than any of my guys and carry the responsibility of 5 people on my shoulders. As the owner I only make $25 an HR if you compare what I'm left with at the end of the year and how many hours I put in. So if I'm going to be paying someone $20 an HR they better be just as productive as me and helping the jobs go smoothly. I shouldn't have to work my arse off to provide for someone else.productivity has risen every year and wealth has increased but wages have stagnated. It's not so much people are entitled more so that people are less likely to put up being exploited by rich people.
Well I know you enjoy jazz. I also know you are some kind of catYou know nothing about me.
Sigh...
