Professional athletes, and all the people involved in pro sports work very, very hard. There is the constant training, the practices, making sure you eat right, and a level of mental toughness mos of us are just not capable of. But every once in a while, there comes along someone in the world of sports that has it easy…maybe a little too easy. And since I felt a site with ‘list’ in it’s name should have more, well, lists, here is my first: Top 10 Cushiest Jobs in Sports. Enjoy!

Jim Sorgi

1. Jim Sorgi – Guy will never have to play, because Peyton Manning is indeed a robot. I also bet he’s REALLY good at Madden. (Of course he only plays as the Colts, and loves to pretend to be Peyton.) Pic caption: Not pictured: actual football being played.

2. T.O.’s Therapist - Who never needs analyzing or cheering up? The guy that thinks he is God. And that’s pretty much T.O. This poor doctor spent years at medical school to be told “I’m great” and “throw me the damn ball!” every appointment. Pic caption: How am I going to pay for this boat?!

3. Doc Rivers – Sorry for the poor picture quality, but the pose was too perfect. Now that he has KG, Ray Allen, and Paul Pierce penciled into his starting 5 every game, what does this guy really have to do? Carry the ball bag? What’s Doc going to tell these guys that they don’t already know? Pic caption: I don’t know, score more points than them?

4. Leo Mazzone – So you mean all I have to do is sit around getting paid a ton of money while Glavine, Smoltz, and Maddux create hall of fame careers for themselves, and everyone will call me a genius? Where do I sign? Pic caption: Now the Orioles will be swimming in great pitching…oops.

5. Triple H (or HHH or Hunter Hearst Helmsley) - Some of you say wrestling isn’t a sport, and to you I say ‘shut up’. It’s always a sweet gig when you are married to the bosses daughter. Now imagine being an athlete that can make yourself the champion anytime you want because of that fact. I’d take that job. Pic caption: OMG, Lemmy!

6. Soccer EMT – Every time someone pretends to be hurt, you have to pretend to work on them. That is seriously your job. Pic caption: Looks like we’re going to have to set this bone *wink*

7. Derek Jeter – No one get’s their ego stroked by analysts more than Derek Jeter. The guy could take a crap on the mound at Yankee Stadium and they would simply scoop it up, and send it over to Cooperstown. Pic caption: “Best post season kisser ever!” – Peter Gammons

8. WNBA Coach – No accountability because no one cares. And you probably get paid pretty well. Pic caption: Zzzzz

9. Second Base Umpire – Out…safe…out…safe…yawn. C’mon, this guy doesn’t even have to call fair or foul. And how many plays are there during a game that are even close at second? Pic caption: Now where is that guy with the cotton candy?

10. Little League Mercenary – Everyone else is 12 and under, but you are 16 and have a mustache. Like shooting fish in a barrel…or like a grown man striking out little kids and sending them crying back to their parents. Yeah, that second analogy works better. Pic caption: Is this game almost over, I gotta pick up my kid from daycare.

    Awesome, DLamp.

    The soccer EMT one made me laugh out loud at work. It was such a satisfying laugh, I didn’t feel the need to explain.

    Ticket taker at WNBA game. Beer salesman at WNBA game. Heck, the only job with any action at a WNBA game is running the Kiss-Cam on the video board.
