NFL, Enslave Me Now. Please!

I cannot express the anger I feel when a man who makes more money in a year then I'll make in a lifetime, whines that he's a slave.

UPDATE 3:00 p.m. EST: We held off on passing along Peterson's most explosive comment from this interview because there was initially a bit of confusion regarding the validity of the quote. Farrar included it in his original interview, but removed it soon after. But he later acknowledged that Peterson said it.

And what was it he said, exactly? Referring to the owners' business arrangement with players, Peterson said, "It's modern-day slavery, you know? People kind of laugh at that, but there are people working at regular jobs who get treated the same way, too."

Yeah, and people with "regular jobs" don't earn anything like what you do, didn't get a free education, and will never live in a home like yours, drive a car like yours, or get all the women they want like you can do.

So stop whining and play the damn game.
