[post_page_title]Smash for cash[/post_page_title]
In 1996, the Green Bay Packers were in the playoffs, and their defensive end, Hall of Famer Reggie White engaged in something that people today are calling Smash-For-Cash. He essentially rewarded his own teammates with stipends out of his own pocket every time they would tackle an opposing player successfully. The sums of money that he’d give out reportedly amounted up to $500 each, and needless to say, his teammates were probably inspired to play a little harder. What he was doing wasn’t necessarily illegal, but people definitely raised their eyebrows – when playoff time comes around, sometimes you’ve got to do what you’ve got to do to inspire your team.
