Will you resent Burrow...?
#25
I've worked in nonprofits my entire life (high schools, colleges, charities, and other NGOs) and have always taken an organization-friendly deal. In fact, I voluntarily lowered my salary with one nonprofit for years in order to help its financial stability. I've never, ever sought the highest salary, even though I have Ph.D. and could command more money. And even though I've had to work multiple jobs to make ends meet, and always lived paycheck to paycheck, I've never once felt bad about the course I've chosen. My wife has the same attitude, so it works.

I wouldn't resent Burrow taking all that he can get. I wouldn't be happy to see the team suffer, but I've never resented other people making more money than me. But, if Burrow looks at it holistically, taking a team-friendly deal could very well be in his best interests. Would he rather have a good team or handicap his team? QBs can make a lot of extra money outside of their sport. You think Mahomes or LeBron are limited to their income from their teams? Of course, not.

I think Burrow would be silly to handicap the team. He most likely would get more enjoyment allowing the team as a whole to prosper, which also raises his profile. And he can make all the extra income he wants by endorsement deals. Particularly if the team he is piloting is successful.
