When Brian Cardinal was a senior in college, he and I really weren’t that different.
Wait, Brian Cardinal Made How Much?
↵↵“I went to job fairs my senior year, sent my résumé out, did a couple of internships. I had a job offer from Schering-Plough, the pharmaceutical company.”
↵↵Yeah, me too. The economy was pretty terrible though, so I started blogging, and here I am! And what about Brian Cardinal, you ask?
↵↵That job has probably been filled now, but Cardinal doesn’t care. He’s earned nearly $40 million in the past decade playing basketball, and this season makes $82,000 per game, mostly watching from the inactive list.
↵↵See, this is why it’s wise, when working in sports, to always keep a bottle of Robitussin at your desk. Because you just never know when reading a Minnesota beat writer’s daily musings will make you want to drink yourself into some cough medicine-induced alternate universe.

↵Brian Cardinal has made forty million dollars.

↵Mmm... We may need TWO bottles o’Tussin!
