Pokegeek : Yeah, I think they get paid a little too much. I think Hockey players should get more money too. The athletes in Hockey work hard, and they deserve some more recognition kinda like American Football players do. Because, honestly, Football players get a big hunk of cash.

Pokegeek : Your layout is making that post kind of hard to read, but I can see what you're saying.
Perhaps since you don't know how to fix it, I can summon the Local Mods and ask them if it's possible they could change the forum's name.
If you were to change it, what would you change it to?

I agree football players are overpaid some kickers and safeties average about 3.1 million dollars a game perhaps even more then that amount while we only donate a dollar to charity.having ten thousand dollars is probably enough to set a person for life but a million is just ridiculous.
I am usually against charity since they are most likely poor because they don't even attempt to go to work but one million per game is just too much for one person.

I think yes they need to man up! Footballers trip over and act like they've broken leg and then you see rugby players get thrown over and fall really bad and they just get up and get on with the game

It disheartens me that people who save lives like firefighters and other emergency response workers get paid less than a guy who throws a ball.

Folks, this is what's called economics.  A football player can make a team and it's business millions per year.  Of course they'll get paid more.  Teachers don't bring in much income into a school district and anyone can go to class and learn to be a teacher.  They're paid much less.  Anyone can be a police officer, fight in the Army, and be a nurse.  Football players and other pro athletes have unique skill sets that make a tremendous amount of money for their profession.  I think they don't paid enough considering what owners get and the abuse football players go through on a weekly basis.

All sports are grinds and the life expectancy of many players is severely reduced.  These guys kill themselves and they get only a fraction of what the owners make.  If people didn't pay as much attention to the sport and pay such outrageous costs for jerseys, kits, tickets, and beer sold at the stadiums, players would make less.

But people spend their money and the owners are making cash hand over fist.  Players don't get paid that much.

Yes because why should someone who is great at football receive a 100 million dollar contract for catching a ball and running into other people? It kind of seems outrageous to me. At least pay them a little less than that, it is way too much.

Yes they are all overpaid. Many professional sports figures make more money in one year than most people do in their lifetime. Some even make more in 1 game than some do in a lifetime. Its pretty insane.

Then some of them end up making bad decisions with their cash and end up broke and ESPN makes a show about them.

I think they should make a good salary, but ticket prices are way too high and they are all greedy both the players and the owners. Its not really about families going out to watch a game anymore and it really hasn't been for a long time.
