So its more like a guy in a 9 to 5 job getting paid a few years worth of salary in starting bonus before working a day. Then getting sent home with pay because the boss decided he was a disruption in the office.
Damn. Glad my life ain't as bad as T.O.'s. How will the poor guy get thru this difficult time?
Police officers get suspended without pay while they are investigating a matter, or punished. Not much different here.
Professional sports is not the only profession that will give you a signing bonus before working a day. Hell, even the Army will give $25,000 signing bonus.
People just see the amount of money that athletes make and it makes their view biased.
