Show Me The Money
As a baseball fan, I am disgusted by the amount of money that baseball players are making. ... I don’t think anyone is worth this much money for playing a sport, because baseball players are making the big bucks to entertain us, but as the salaries go up so do the price of tickets. ... Derek Jeter said he would rather count World Series rings than money. So why then did it take 13 months of negotiations for his contract if money wasn’t ever his concern? ... The money would have been put to better use if I just invested it for my children’s education and watched the game on television. ... These other businesses were the first and that’s where the owners made their money. ... These joint ownerships allow the owners, through corporate tie-ins, to transfer profits from one company to another, much like taking money out of one pocket and putting it into the other. ...
Comparing the rate of increase in teachers’ salaries to that of baseball players’ salaries, it is hard to understand the reasons players are making this kind of money. ... In short, I think I’ll keep my hard earned money and watch sports on the television.
