I somehow get the feeling Carl ain’t ever going to be one of those players that goes broke.

I know a lot of the big guys do go broke and make fools of themselves but there are tons of guys who really benefit from the NFL salaries and do what is needed to never work again

For a while, I took Tyson Clabo fishing on Lake Lanier when he played for the Falcons. Tyson was a OT. He played for the Falcons about 5 years before going to Miami. He will not go broke. He played year to year for the Falcons then finally got a 5 year deal that took care of him for the rest of his life

He is retired now... And unless something major happens, never work a day of his life again

Which is what he wanted. Smart guy. And a great personality.
