What's the difference between a team owner and a player? The ability to walk and think clearly after the age 50.

I love football as much as the next person. Far too many people are on the side of the owners and look at the players as greedy. When owners look for more money it's good business. On the contrary, players who want their piece of the pie are plain ole greedy.

Roll Call of Owner's worth:

Jerry Jones...$2B

Robert Kraft...$1.5B

Dan Snyder...$1.1B

In May 2009, Forbes magazine estimated that Tiger Woods's total net worth is $600 million. His career earnings total over $1 billion. Forbes has forecast that by the end of 2010 he will be a billionaire. There are no football players that are remotely close to the net worth of Tiger or any football owner.

There have been studies related to football that address the violence of a tackle. A football collision or tackle has been compared to a car crash. How many owners are willing to withstand the damage and abuse of repeated car wrecks? How many are willing to put their bodies in danger ever snap of the ball. Most of them sit in private booths with air conditioning and catered meals.

I won't owner bash without pointing out the lavish life style of the players as well. But, if I have to put the money in the hands of those who put it on the line everyday, I'm for the players every time.

I almost forgot about all the workers at the stadiums who will have no jobs this year. For all I care, they can just play college basketball and football all year.
