Is he serious? Is this thread serious? I'm not trying to be a wise guy, seriously asking. I want to know because I'm going to go to my boss and say 31.28 an hour is not enough for risking my life. I want 1000 a day! I'll keep you updated.
I don't know what you do for a living, but my guess is it would be easier for your boss to replace you with someone equivalent than it would be for the Cowboys to replace Lawrence with someone equivalent. Not picking on you - that same thing would apply to me and my working situation too. NFL players have more leverage than everyday people, especially top ones, because you can't just hire a job recruiter to find candidates, hold interviews and find an equivalent replacement.
That said, I'm cool with it if the Cowboys decide not to meet Lawrence's demands. I would hate to lose him, but his contract has to fit within the overall team needs.
