Adidas Investments

So i noticed today that the Second overall pick of the 2012 NFL Draft Robert Griffin III already has a commercial up and running representing Adidas.  I must say that this athlete has not hit the field yet and already cashing in on his talent.  I am not saying this is a bad thing, but I have come to realize that athlete are becoming their own stock of their own company within themselves.  Adidas did another big investment signing Derrick Rose to 10-year $250 million contract.  The funny thing is just like stock athletes are just as unpredictable as the stock exchange.  It seems to me the biggest dividends are being paid to those who signed on the bottom line.
