I'm not even sure rather I want to be pissed off at them, or laugh at the stupidity behind them. I know it might be taken way out of context when you read, or hear something like this. But a boneheaded comment, is what it is. And this...

"It's starting to cost too much money to come to work for these guys,"


Was a quote by Pittsburgh Steelers head coach Mike Tomlin, in reference to a recent string of fines against his players, have totaled $50,000. Now, I know that when you factor in cost of living, and all that jazz, these guys pay out more, than the average person. But come the fuck on! ONE of the four players fined, could pay that off, and not have to go light on the grocery shopping.

However, someone that gets a bullshit $200 speeding ticket, because they were trying to get to their job, after taking the 15 minute detour, past the 30 minute traffic jam, that just popped up one morning due to road construction that was not scheduled, to avoid being fired from their $300 a week job, will be struggling for a couple of months now.

These people that live these luxurious lifestyles, need a reality dose sometimes. I just want to slap this idiot in the face for that dumb ass comment.

>_> Quite a rant for such a meaningless thing, but it really irritated me, and really, I have nothing better to do at the moment, as I weigh the options of going out tonight, to staying in.

EDIT: I figured it out! It's his use of the "coming to work" line, that he tries to gain sympathy for them! As if to compare what they are paid to do (play a child's game) compares to anything that the rest of us get up, and do each day. Yeah motherfucker, I'll trade jobs with them, if all I had to do was pay some dumb ass fine, that once subtracted from my bank account, won't even make a difference. >_>
