Its not just Joe Fan that feels that way either, we've all seen interviews & read articles about veterans that feel rookies have gotten WAY out of line with their demands.

In the real world, we have to work FIRST...then get paid.
Let me tell you something, in this league as a player if you don't get all the money you can, you're stupid.

If he gets hurt, no one is gonna take care of him. The league and the team will move on and not care, they'll replace him with someone else. Who's to say he'll even be good? If you are in a position to set yourself and your family up for a lifetime you do what you have to do.
