NFL mask

I haven't watched sports on TV since I retired 25 years ago but I did watch a few minutes last night. I wanted to see how a guy who earns $50 million per year performs on the field. He earns $3 million per game or $1 million per hour. This is more money than a service employee earns in his entire life. Before we get all bent out of shape regarding income disparities keep in mind that some 12 million people watched and at 8 cents apiece that will cover his salary. That is very inexpensive entertainment. What was more interesting was the fact that the people who could safely distance including the 16,000 fans in a stadium that seats 76,000, the coaches on the sideline and the 7 officials worn mask but the players who could not safely distance did not wear mask.
