If "us mere 5 figure employees" had 32 businesses in the same field in our city we could work at, and 29 of the 32 businesses offered Pizza Fridays, coffee makers with free quality coffee, and individual cubicle AC settings... sure we could afford to buy ourselves pizza, coffee, and a sweater... but if you're a worker in one of the only 3 businesses that DON'T get that, you'd feel shorted. It is normal to want to have the same quality of life perks as the other >90% of workers in your field do if it's become the standard for people who do the same job as you.
All NFL owners are not equal. The Brown family is relatively poor compared to the Robert Krafts and Jerry Jone's of the NFL world. I'm sure if they built a new stadium, they could offer a family room. Maybe there is not a place for one in Paycor that is not being used for something else. Sorry, when my kids were young, my wife and I paid for our kids daycare on a Police and Nurse salaries, and did not expect an employer to provide it. Nobody bought our meals or paid for our dietitians and trainers. This is just spoiled athlete crap.
Interesting to note that the worst ownership belongs to the team they call the new dynasty....
