Re: A rich guy speaks out to other rich folk
I'd like to more about this, "exploitation of the workers" bit. It is kind of a blanket statement which doesn't seem fair overall. I have a job and therefore I am a worker. I feel like I am being paid a fair wage for the work that I do. (naturally I'd always love to have more but who doesn...

I'm not sure that the Packers would have won that game if the call had been made correctly or not. I do know that it would be a different game altogether. The Packers were really pathetic as far as covering Boldin. It was embarrassing to watch. It was like the Reggie Wayne thing from last year.
