Adalius Thomas gives his thoughts on an 18 game schedule

BOO HOO you're getting paid to PLAY A GAME. Sure you are risking injury everytime you step on that field, but I'm a cook, I'm risking cutting my finger off everytime I pick up a knife at work, or getting a serious burn everytime I cook something on the Grill, and I only get paid $12 an hour (already have nerve damage in my index finger, half my finger is numb now).

Fishing up in Alaska is the most dangerous job in the world (statistically), and they only make a fraction what NFL players make.

These guys need to start being a little more grateful. I think they need a little reality check.
