Peppers or Delhomme: Which one is more overpaid?

Every player is overpayed .. i think everybody should make the same amount and if they want more it should be on incentives only by play time / sacks , td passes whatever .. i dont care where you get drafted .. earn it if you want it

Viva la Socialism!!!

Good in theory, would never work in practice. People are too greedy.

Jake, easily. Peppers is one of the best at one of the most sought after positions in football. Of course jake plays at the games most important position. But the difference between Jake and Peppers is that even if he took plays off, Julius has never been an average player. Even with 2007 Julius is known as an elite DE and he does deserve it. Most DE's never reach his "slacking" numbers or success playing at their best.

Common misconception. Socialism doesn't work because people are lazy, not because people are greedy.

Actually both. When I am doing a job that is harder or more dangerous then the next guy but we basically are making the same and getting the same benefits it breeds contentment. We do probably have the best governmental structure in the world I firmly believe its the idiots and crooks that run it that have made us into a laughing stock.

But I was referring to his idea about a flatline salary idea when I said people are greedy.

Care to elaborate?

I don't know how I can elaborate any more. It's not like they could hire any of us to do that job. Both of those guys have alot of experience doing a job that not many people are capable of doing.

Also, in contrast to what one user posted, I'd argue no players in the NFL are overpaid. The NFL is a very high profit organization (I think) and the players are a huge reason it's so successful.

The owners are probably overpaid, esp the ones that cut costs in order to make money while not caring about winning games....

You do realize the the owners are the ones who invested their own money....they are the ones that have all of the risk....they are not employees.
