This article didn't strike me (pun intended) as simply an example of "How Not To Pay Your Superstars".

It's not as easy as it looks.

Unfortunately we can't attribute that quote to my dad - that one belongs to Vince Lombardi.

The one you can attribute to my dad is, "Either be an example or I'll make one out of you."
