Ok, so usually something like this wouldnt bother me but the more I got thinking about it, the more steamed I became. All but three living Super Bowl MVPs were present for the Pre-Game Ceremony. Those players were Terry Bradshaw, Joe Montana, and Jake Scott. Oh, Jake Scott was traveling in Australia and could not make it you say? Well were Bradshaw and Montana with him? No, they werent! Wait, did you say they were both in Detroit at some point last week. What could have happened that would have kept them from attending a Ceremony honoring a game that has been both good and lucrative to them lets see: 1.) Death in the Family Nope not that, I called and spoke with every immediate member of the Bradshaw and Montana family and all alive THANK GOD! 2.) Sickness Nope, not that either. These were two of the toughest players ever to suit so there was no way a cold would have kept them from that So then what is left? Ill tell you MONEY! Bradshaw and Montana declined coming to the Super Bowl because it did not pay enough. Who do they think they are, Ted DiBiase? Not even close They are two guys who owe at least showing up to a sport that has made them, if nothing elseFREAKIN LOADED. Joe Montana reportedly was asking for $100,000 dollars as an appearance fee. That is $99,000 more than Steve Young received for showing up and although I believe Montana was a better QB, he wasnt 100X better! Terry Bradshaw 4 time SB Champion 2 Time SB MVP.NO Show! Although he didnt come out and say its about money.its about money. Bradshaw is one of the highest paid Motivational Speakers in the country so he is paid big time to show up at events. Here is the kicker He was in Detroit appearing that week to talk to some group. Oh, another thing I just remembered, The Steelers were in the Super Bowl! Nice Terry, way to support your team.ASS! People talk about todays athlete and how it is only about the money and how the athlete of yester-year did it for The Love of the Game Well Jerome Bettis, modern athlete, showed up to play the game he loved while Bradshaw and Montana, well you know. |
