This is some bullshit.....




When the NFL unveiled its MVPs from the previous 39 Super Bowls, only three living members skipped the ceremony.

Former 49ers quarterback Joe Montana and former Steelers quarterback Terry Bradshaw decided to stay home, while former Dolphins MVP Jake Scott was traveling in Australia.

Montana, the league's only three-time Super Bowl MVP, turned down the invitation over money, Newsday and the San Francisco Chronicle reported.

Bradshaw, who told league officials that he wanted to be with his family, also took issue with the fees, the Chronicle reported. Bradshaw, through a representative, denied the Chronicle's report that there was a dispute over money.

Former MVPs were given $1,000 for incidental expenses while in Detroit, along with other amenities such as plane tickets, car rental and game tickets.

Sources told each paper that Montana asked for a guarantee of at least $100,000 in appearance money.

When the league balked at Montana's demands, the quarterback declined to be in attendance.

AH...my bad.....good point though......

BTW - on THAT note, why the HELL does the MVP get a NEW Cadillac Escalade.....like he doesn't make enough money to buy his own.

He should GIVE the damn thing to someone who REALLY needs it.

Pro soccer > other pro sports

Here in the states there are kids who work in fast food that make as much as a pro soccer player.
It really shows the love they have for the sport.


Well, are you?

Why is it always the men who are crying then? Sorry, if I wanted drama I would watch soap operas (and post on this board ), not sports.

Meat and sports go together, as does war.

This explains your lack of interest in sports and war.

I'm aware of that, which is why I said "here in the states".
There are players in N. America who make millions, but not that many.
I'm a pretty big soccer/football supporter, I know how the system works
