Below is a blurb that I wrote a while ago for an up-and-coming magazine called Deep Coverage. The magazine's mission is to give readers a chance to get to know players off the turf and outside the locker room. Check out the beta version of their site: http://www.deepcoveragemag.com/beta/.
NFL players and owners may be close to settling an agreement, but as of now, the lockout is still in full effect. In other words, NFL players are still UNEMPLOYED. Money is much tighter than it was a year ago. If you disagree, ask Detroit Lions Paul Pratt and New York Giants Steve Smith. As the video illustrates, both star athletes may be jobless, but they still have to find a way to eat and support their family. Selling lemonade is the new hustle. Despite the scorching heat, Smith and Pratt are showing they are willing to do whatever it takes to make that extra dollar or in this case 50 cents. With all the free time on their hands, more players are just finding new talents and hobbies to partake in and Lockout Lemonade is just another amusement.
