Ever consider JL may have the dream job of his life once he hung ''em up on the field? And he is making plenty of money now for his wants, plus he is in the catbird seat of NFL…being a GM.
Probably every NFL fan in the world at one time or another, has a had a fanciful thot or two of being a NFL ( 9ers) GM. It's not realistic, of course, but we all can dream. Also it undoubtedly is a lot more satisfying and way more difficult to be a GM rather than a TV play by play guy. Lastly, guys like Aikman, Collinsworth, et al, are not "1 day" men. They travel to site of game, interview HC, GM, players…as many as possible…then prepare…so it isn't a 17 day job for the yr. Also, figure 2 days for travel, frequently not at home, etc.
John L has an incredibly cool job with great folks around him plus he gets to help build a championship team. And, he and HC are best buds. Not too hard a decision when you look at it in its entirety. Plus on a daily basis during NFL season he has a pretty fascinating 45 guys to hang around with.
But i know you posted that as "tongue in cheek".
