It took him six seconds to make what a teacher would make in 18 years. 

EDIT - Should probably give him credit for all the work he did leading up to that 8th sack.  So six seconds per play times eight...let's see...where's the calculator...ah, here we go - 48 seconds to make what a teacher makes in 18 years.

I believe in incentives. I had seriously considered implementing an incentive program with some of my throw away cash here on the x, in order to better the quality. Then I remembered that you can't make chicken salad out of chicken shit.

The bar was purposely set extremely low to encourage participation. We have no interest in your fancy ideas. But I wouldn't mind some extra beer money.

If so we should see an uptick in recruiting with the influx of new funds.

We've been through this before with the incentives which turns to getting compromised. Don't know how Alabama avoids the human weakness factor beyond the Jelks incident but they manage.

     Not sure where you're teaching, but most teachers make quite a bit more than $33k, and they only work 180 days a year.
