Professional Sports
« on: September 14, 2010, 09:42:55 am »
Do you think that in todays Professional Sports that players are getting paid way to much for todays games?? I mean seriously is a person worth millions of dollars to play and for us to cheer for them. I can see why they charge so much for us to go and watch it live. I think it's uncall for owners to give up that much for one person....  :BangHead:

What's your thoughts???

Pat,  of course they are paid too much.  They are worth that much because "WE" go to the games and pay to see them.  But, the real reason they get paid millions is because of the television.  The adds costs so much during the games and the teams make millions off the commericals.  I will never again, pay to watch professional sports in person.  I will watch it on TV.  Good question for debate.  Thanks.  Mickey.

I think professional sports players are being paid too much money. They should be able to make a living, but not the amount they receive just because they are playing games.
