You really have no idea do you.   There is no "off" season and even less of one if you are a fringe player as you find games anywhere you can and you train constantly - it is a full time, 365 job.    

 

Mansion.   Ya, sure.    

Cry me a river, try living in a third world country. His salary is $175,000 even playing in the minors.

so no one is allowed to express any human emotions if they make over x amount of dollars or if they live in a first world country?

 

At the very least the wife's thoughts give us insights into some of the challenges these families face.

Right? I'd like to see some posters here tell McKenna's daughters to get over missing their dad just because other people have less glamorous jobs that take them away from their family as well.
