'Pro' Would Generally Connote Getting Paid
-
Playing for the love of the game is fine if you're not risking injury for nothing, but if you're a pro football player and your team isn't paying your full salary, you'd probably do what some UFL Sacramento Mountain Lions players are doing and walking away rather than play without a full paycheck. The owner who isn't fully paying the players and allowing what they say are poor practice conditions with no weight room and team meals consisting of hot dogs and stew? Paul Pelosi. As in Nancy's husband. He was allegedly late with the paychecks and, when they came, they were for $1,000 rather than the $3,500 they were supposed to be for. And with all of this, the question remains: The UFL is still in business? (KOVR-TV/Sacramento)
