I wouldn't think he needs the $ anymore...His kids and probably grandkids are set for life.  

Loved having him on the Vikings, a great local story. 

I just want a really good field stretcher to pair with JJ this year. I'm not losing sleep if Thielen is back or not. 

Has he really made that much,   after taxes and all?

$65M before taxes.

and agent fees,  and travel expenses,  plus non profit donations,  how is that supposed to carry a family,  let alone a couple generations in todays economy?  I know what my IRA lost last year,  imaging having those kind of losses to try and recoup?
