The Player: NFL super agent Drew Rosenhaus

One thing is certain, a Rosenhaus client will play in this year's Super Bowl, because he has clients on every team - but Atlanta.

That's the result of his obsessive single-minded discipline he traces back to his Tae Kwon Do training as a boy.

Whether to impress his clients or his competitors, Rosenhaus didn't want us to get away without seeing a concrete example of his force of will.

Rosenhaus: Nine bricks. It's the most I've ever done with the fire technique. It's gotta be very quick, very explosive, very powerful, very fast, otherwise I'm gonna get burnt very badly. I've broken my hand. I've gotten stitches. You have to hit it though, as if it's not bricks. As if it's a pillow. You have to hit it with all your heart, with all your might.

And, consider, that's his texting hand.

Rosenhaus: Hiyaaa! Ahh!

Pelley: Does that hand still work?

Rosenhaus: Yeah. Everything's great. I'm perfect.

Pelley: A Miami columnist once wrote about you. His words, not mine, 'Only a few things will survive a nuclear holocaust, and they are?'

Rosenhaus: Cockroaches and Drew Rosenhaus.

Pelley: And Twinkies.

Rosenhaus: Twinkies.

Pelley: Are you more the cockroach or the Twinkie?

Rosenhaus: If a cockroach is strong and a survivor, then that's okay. Every day I get a client that's injured, that's hurt, that gets cut, that gets traded.

Pelley: Gets arrested?

Rosenhaus: Arrested. Tragic, stress, panic, paranoia. But I embrace that calamity. I'm comfortable in that chaos.

He made me nauseous. Why don't you get it through your over inflated big headed ego that you could kill someone texting and driving. You acted so egotistical and your nothing but an idiot. The way you treat people will come back to haunt you one day.

Duke has another reason to be proud of an alumnus--not!

I don't blame the other agents for reporting Rosenmouth for ethics violations. Anyone who revels in his apparent ruthless biz tactics -- and who calls women "girls" -- as he does -- deserves such legit peer scorn. But who cares? It's all for greed and money. He epitomizes how much money is wa$ted on ... a ... game played by men who, like Rosenmouth, are obscenely OVERPAID. If only our teachers and other public lifesavers (firemen/firewomen; social workers, for instance) were paid a pittance of what Rosenmouth and pro football players make, then maybe our #1 ranking as a world power wouldn't be as such serious risk.

I believe that it is irresponsible to show Drew Rosenhaus, on the phone, texting, on the internet, all While Driving!!! What message are you sending out to people. And, Please like he can't afford a driver, so he can be doing all that nonsense!!!!!!!!!!!

This was just vanity. Spending so much time and money on a sports agent is merely self indulgence and has no relevance. There are relevant things in the world to show us, this was not one of them.

Drew Rosenhaus - I think you need to think longer term. You may not be around to enjoy all your millions, if you keep at that horrid pace. Slow down and savor success more.
