First of all, they didn’t pay quarterbacks what they do today. And I was 27 with three kids,” he says. “I kept thinking about [what would happen] if some linebacker takes off my head and I can’t play anymore.” I really think it taught me a lot about teamwork, the importance of someone else other than yourself, how you have your goals, but there’s a team goal and it’s more important sometimes than your own goals. It taught me a lot about perseverance — life has its challenges, you get knocked down and you have to pick yourself back up, and when you’re down don’t change your values or cook your books or give up on your faith; you got to kind of fight through things. Sports taught me that. The other thing is just hard work. Things just don’t come easy. There’s an old saying: It takes a lot of unspectacular preparation to get spectacular results. Sports taught me that if you’re going to be good at something, you have to pay the price to get there and work hard. That’s transferable if you spend the time at it in business. It’s trust, it’s teamwork, perseverance, hard work — it all comes in handy in business, too. Roger doled out equity to employees as he built the business and at the time of the sale, he owned only 12% of the company. He put half of his JLL windfall into a trust for his children. Last year was the final payout on the JLL sale and also included a $36.9 million earn-out for the Staubach Co. reaching certain targets. Staubach currently serves as executive chairman of JLL and sits on the board. He still goes to work every day and is active with customers. Forbes estimates he made $12 million last year, including the roughly $4 million directed toward a trust for his children. “I didn’t make enough money in my sport to retire,” says the former QB. Staubach employees are happy for that. Roger made them a bundle in his second career.

  4. Welcome to the board! Do you like movies about gladiators?
  5. We shouldn't waste our time discussing soldiers that shoot other soldiers. Instead, we should be more concerned whether Army grooming regulations are "racially biased": http://www.usatoday.com/story/news/nation/2014/04/01/soldiers-complain-army-hairstyle-rule-racially-biased/7149757/

  11. I don't think that any guy on this board would want to wait two more years for Bush. In fact, I think that every guy on this board would want to have Bush tonight rather than have to wait two more years.
  12. It will be fun when they find out that, if college-athletes are employees, that scholarships and related items can then be classified as "income" and "benefits", making them subject to federal and state income taxes. Also, by having "income", this makes these students ineligible for other financial aid such as Pell Grants.
