No, asshole. They're playing because they earned their spots through talent and hard work, and they busted their asses, as well as other body parts, to get there. Their bodies have the crap beat out of it every time they are on the field, and many of them sustain irreparable brain damage on top of that. All for the entertainment of those who are willing to pay them to watch. Go fuck yourself, you syphilis-addled dotard.
