What is your opinion? I think some sports do and some don't. NBA basketball for instance is out of control. You have guys making 20 million a year, with a low chance of injury.

Then you have the olympic athletes that I am told make very little. :dunno:

I'll agree with 'some sports do and some don't'. Here in the UK, footballers (soccer players) get far more than most, especially if they are at the top of their game. Olympic athletes on the other hand usually have other jobs to supplement their income.

You gotta remember that they are only playing for a few years and if something breaks your out of the game maybe forever...........and they will have to start over as a security gaurd or drag queen or something..........so if they can get it go for it.
