I attended my firat pro football game yesterday as the DC Defenders hosted the Michigan Panthers at DC United's stadium.
DC was still technically playoff eligible, but they play very uninspired football and were defeated 22-9.
Nice venue, good weather, good experience.
I discovered that each player earns $50k/season. There are 40 players/team, so $2 million dollars in salary per team per year.
No cheerleaders, no halftime entertainment, but tickets on the 50 yard line upper level were $22.
Not a bad day.
