People need to stop trying to compare their 9-5 job to professional sports. There is nothing similar except that you get paid for doing a job.
Unless he is infantry or special operations in the military. Technically both are considered to be professional athletes.

The nature of work has changed and is highly flexible. Ballplayers wake up at 12, workout, take a nap, show up at the ballpark 3 hours before the game, meet with press, warmup, play a 3 hour game, meet with press again, fly to the next city, in bed at 4 am. And this is 7 days a week for 7 months. Off-seasons can involve business deals, training, and even winter leagues.
I get up 5 minutes before work and sign into work at 8:30 in my underwear. I then proceed to work, drink coffee, and post on these forums until I sign off at 5:00.
Who has the real “9-5 job”?
And if you don’t like your situation, change it. I assume you live in a free country.
No, I don’t. Unfortunately.

In my line of work, you fail means you fail. Your not rewarded until your successful which means you try and try until you get it right.
I carry that mentality when I come home and get on this game.
It frustrates me to see my opponent be rewarded for failing, and myself, I don’t want the game to hold my hand. The hitting in this game does exactly that. It comes down to many things from retaining players to game sales, online gaming is huge business and there’s lots of money to be made if your game is setup the right way.
With all that being said, I’m turning a new page and accepting it. Many many suggestions/ideas along with tough criticism have been brought forward to the people responsible for this game, some of those have been implemented. With minimal changes over the years towards the hitting design it’s apparent they’re content with what it is and that seems to be the near future as well. I enjoy this game at times and want to throw it away at times, at the end of the day it’s the only game I’ve consistently played for years and despite its flaws I’ll keep playing….and accepting the flaws and randomness throughout the gameplay. The content has always been top notch.
I’ve also been critical towards other people and I apologize for that. I tried to never insult anyone but if you took my criticism as an insult…again, my apologies. Here’s to a new year and hope everyone achieves your goals. Have fun.
Would I be correct in assuming that you also do not support the strategy of bringing a starter out of the pen?

My life mentality is do what puts the least amount of stress on yourself. Work bringing you down? Don't bring it home with you, as soon as you punch out, work doesn't exist. Your job bringing you extreme stress? Find a way to lessen your work load if possible. Enjoy life, don't stress through it.

I assume he lives in America and is giving a critique about not being “truly free” without any consideration of context. Could be wrong, but probably not.

I could debate this topic all day. If you want to be technical then yeah. Technically as an Army Ranger, I was trained and conditioned to preform under pressure. You have to have some degree of athleticism to be a special operations operative. And most special operations men and women are extremely fit and can preform at high levels in various sports. Mainly endurance sports like marathons and various alterations of that sport.
To your point I’d agree and disagree. It’s hard to argue the words “professional athlete” because you do get paid to train and preform in your discipline physically as a special operations operative. That in definition is a professional athlete. Yet that encompasses a lot of other professions as well. I guess perspectively is where I’d disagree. Definition wise I don’t.
Anyways, nothing but love for any professions that provide an essential public and national service. Professional Athletes or not I’d alway consider them heroes.
