Re: Do Sport Athletes Get Paid 2 Much?

all these comparisons are apples to oranges...

Market forces dictate what people are paid (in most instances). If football didn't earn so much profit, then football players would get paid like soccer players (domestic). The fact is, owners pay players roughly what the market dictates because if they don't, they'll go somewhere else, or do something else (opportunity cost). Rich people don't pay other people gratuitous amounts of money for nothing; thats not how they got rich.
