soccer. probably as much as david beckham. he is a lot better than me. i m sexier. we ll grant you that. but he made more money. i m not angry at him. i m not angry at derek jeter for winning five world championships and dating two models a day for 18 years. i think that s the way life s overcome it. deal it with. life is not fair. just do your best. stop resenting people. the other thing, is you know, we work hard because we want to pass it on to our children. that is a main motivator. set your children up so they re better off than you were when you were a kid. so there is an nfl player named chris borland, 24 years old who retired after one year playing in the nfl y? he had over 100 tackles and en route to making a multimillion dollar salary. he ll make $600,000 this year. he is only two concussions in his life. one came from soccer. he started doing research in a book about to come out about what can happen if you have play football and have the brain injuries. he s not worth i
better off than you were when you were a kid. so there is an nfl player named chris borland, 24 years old who retired after one year playing in the nfl y? he had over 100 tackles and en route to making a multimillion dollar salary. he ll make $600,000 this year. he is only two concussions in his life. one came from soccer. he started doing research in a book about to come out about what can happen if you have play football and have the brain injuries. he s not worth it. i have a ba in history at wisconsin, i m going to start using that. he was going to make $650,000 this year. it is scarey. as the mother tleef kids and two of them young boys i worry about this. should i? you should, in a way. life is full of riskst sports are full of risk. as a guy you know who played soccer and heading balls, i think soccer you can argue is almost as risky because the head-to-head contact, no equipment. we also had shannon sharpe this week. he says, i knew he is an outstanding tight end. played fo
