Upshaw is a puppet for the money. As long as the gravey tain runs, he'll tap along. And why not, not many of us really wany=t to consider the health consequences: aches and pains beyond normal, suicides related to head injuries and shorter life expectancies. The average fan doesn't know that the retirement pay doesn't start until age 55. Put that fact next to shorter life span and routine denial of disability pay an dthe math in the owner's favor.
