Yeah they make millions, but they're people like the rest of us. They want to be able to speak their mind on issues they want to talk about, regardless of their status. They mentioned being scrutinized by the public and viewed under a magnifying glass. Shit, I felt a similar way when playing in HIGH SCHOOL, you know. That stuff isn't reserved for million dollar athletes. I bet they had these same issues in college, too, where they weren't making a paycheck and still had to go through the media mis-quotes and higher than reasonable expectations. They have to deal with it all, because there is huge salary that goes with playing in the Pros, but it doesn't mean they have to like it.

Bennett and Moffitt are both sideways thinkers. Philosophical, outside the box, deep readers who are deeply passionate about what they believe. Williams brings a different perspective just by not being American (although most of this clip he was the toddler in the group . . . seen but not heard).
Its a different side of the NFL. Not just a bunch of dumb jocks or pranksters or uptight PC press pushers.
