GOP Bill Would Strip Workers Of Overtime, Minimum Wage Protections
Bears defensive tackle Tommie Harris signed his four-year, $40 million contract today, and afterward he met with reporters to give an admirably humble view of an eight-figure payday:"It was the principle of the whole deal. I wanted this deal done because the NFL gave me a price tag. I don't believe any NFL player deserves the amount of money that we do get. But in the business that we're in, they give us tags and say, 'This guy's worth this, this guy's worth that.' We play a game-a kids' game-and get paid a king's ransom.Fans and the media often complain that pro athletes are overpaid, and I've never agreed with that: After all, if you can fill a 60,000-seat stadium and get millions to watch you on TV, don't you deserve to be well-compensated? And yet I respect Harris for saying what he said.
Still, somehow I'm guessing Harris's agent, Drew Rosenhaus, wishes Harris would knock it off with the stuff about no NFL player deserving what they get.
