Meanwhile in that universe next door..
Feb. 21st, 2014 03:48 pmThe one where I'm a star football player.
I reached the end of my second season with the New York Jets. Because of my hard work in training, I'm now rated 99 out of 100 as a running back. After a heartbreaking loss in the divisional playoffs to the Colts, my agent rung me up. "So, your contract is up. You want to stay in New York or test free agency?"
"Get me the hell off this team." was my reply.
A few weeks later, an icon appeared on my calender. A large pile of cash. That was my Free Agent meeting. My agent tells me he's been working the phones, and here are the offers. Right at the top, the best offer possible.
San Francisco 49ers 4 years, $34.5 million. Oh, hell yes! Wearing #30 in honor of Bill Ring (member of that first Niners Super Bowl team.)
