    Integrated NIC problem?

    Sports payrolls..

    And also...the number of games does figure in. 162 games of baseball = A TON more revenue for each team. Think of all the consessions, etc. Mroe revenue = more room to pay employees. Should it go to the players or to the Chiefs? I say pay who is attracting the fans, not the upper management!

    Sports payrolls..

    Big f-ing deal that football players don't make what baseball players do.......Garbage men work "harder" than computer programmers when talking about physical labor and make peanuts compared. Distinguishing between jobs is absurd. Do you want to start a post about the CEO of Wal-Mart raking...
