It was a simple tweet and it went like this:
There aren't better athletes in the world than NFL players. None. Zero.

Such a simple, non-offensive tweet. It was in response to the massive contracts NBA players have been receiving since the start of free agency. I thought that if basketball players were getting that kind of cash, why weren't the best athletes in the universe making that kind of money?
