American workers......American jobs........American pride.....

I thought you would enjoy this video of how the NFL footballs are manufactured.
Quite a business their only product, lifetime employment for maybe 40-50 people, probably $25 million in revenues annually, low overhead!

That was interesting.

With all those employees being there 30 - 40 years. They are all going to retire pretty soon...Then what?
