[quote=punch it in;948476]Its amazing how most of these guys make more money in a year than alot of us will make in a lifetime and yet they need a job when they are done? I know alot of them desire another career not just because of money but if it were me i think i would just enjoy my life after football. Try and live "modestly" with my millions since they do retire at an early age. Invest wisely and let my money make money. What is Springs doing now?

He's been doing random analyst work on ESPN, Big Ten Network, and Comcast SportsNet last I heard.

Most guys want other careers because they're bored. Plus it's not full time work in many cases

[QUOTE=RedskinRat;948478]Peer pressure. How many young people know how to conduct themselves around their friends let alone being told how friggin' awesome they are by everyone they meet and get all puffed? I'm surprised that more athletes aren't utter failures after their career is done. Some psychologist somewhere should have coined the phrase 'Post Adoration Stress Disorder'.[/QUOTE]

Yeah you probably nailed it and i get they are young kids when they get the money. So maybe i should have said im amazed at how many of them arent more properly "looked after". I know that is easier said than done - i have a teenage step son that just shit away his graduation money before attending college and is now calling home for money every other day! So i cannot imagine trying to harness a 21 yr old with millions and the spotlite!

@SS - good for him i liked Springs. Thought he was a decent dude from what i remember ( maybe i remember wrong).

Caught about two minutes of that when i was dozing off last nite. Forgot. Must have been subliminal thought making me go there. I have to check when that is on again. Those 30 for 30's are awesome.

pretty sure the only redskin i ever met was charles mann. he did a grand opening of a hardware store in howard county way back when. as a time frame of reference, i was wearing overalls. it was probably the best day of my life at that point, he was very nice.
