Scandal alert!  Naval Academy students get paid $864 a month!  For an approximately 44 month college career, that's $38016!  Plus, they guarantee every player a cushy SWO job after graduation!  Makes Terrelle Pryor's $2500 seem like chump change.  Where's the investigation NCAA!!!

But it brings up a salient point. Next time someone complains about players not getting paid because their skills are so valuable, let's not give too much sympathy for those going onto the NFL, when others are risking taking a bullet (or other life threatening risks) for their Country when they're done playing.
