    Chris Kluwe is a victim of the nasty system that doesn't expect athletes to have opinions or speak their mind. He has every reason to sue the Vikings. I hope he wins.

    Kluwe was sometimes called "Sluggo" by his teammates.
    Little-known fact.

    Chris Kluwe is a victim of playing a position that doesn't value $1.4 million salaries.

    Posited: Chris Kluwe is an asshole who is correct on the issue on which he chose to take a stand.

    Except that, according to Sportrac.com, 12 punters are scheduled to make a base salary of $1.4 million or more and 15 of them have an average salary of that level or higher.

    The position is valued if there is ability, and I'm assuming, a good attitude, behind it.
