What’s next, layoffs at sports agents?

This is serious! I thought the NFL was as safe a bet as anyone.

SAN FRANCISCO (MarketWatch) — The National Football League will cut about 150 league jobs, or about 14% of its staff, over the next 60 days to cut costs in response to the recession, according to media reports Tuesday. The layoffs will not affect individual teams, which are controlled by the clubs, but will affect the NFL’s New York City headquarters; NFL Films in Mount Laurel, N.J.; and NFL Network and NFL.com based in Los Angeles.
