Yes they would - and as an athlethe myself - I can say that getting paid for something you love doing is great
I currently play soccer, at age 41, in a men's over-30 league. I pay to play the game I love. Doubt I'd continue playing if I find that this game is destroying my body and mind. On the contrary,one of my teammates is 56 and is an inspiration to me. This dude notches a goal every game or two. He's competitive with guys 20 years younger and is a picture of health. I play because it keeps me healthy and fit. As spectators of NFL football, shouldn't we all bear some responsibility in disclosing the true cost of a career in the NFL to all players?
