Professional Athletes a Fans Perspective.
By RobertBIrish (Robert Burgin)
Is it only me or is everyone else in this country getting tired of spoiled Millionaires that have absolutely no pride in themselves anymore? These guys only seem to be showing up putting on their uniform and going through the motions and then expect to be paid, the lowest paid players in professional sports make more than a two income middle class family and they complain! Speaking of the middle class I don't know if you guys know it or not but without us you would not have a job and by the attendance records at some of the major league parks it looks like I am not the only one that is tired of paying inflated prices for tickets to four dollar hotdogs.
You know baseball has gone so far down hill since the last strike and now these guys are complaining and talking about another one if they do it will destroy the game because they have not recovered from the last one and these greedy spoiled millionaires are complaining because they want 5 million instead of 4 million, I am sorry but for four million dollars I would do the Mexican hat dance at times square naked at lunch hour and would never have to work again, but these bums can't live off of it!
Does anyone else remember the good old days when professional athletes had pride and were loyal to a team? I sure do! These days players are lucky to be with a team 3 years because of free agency, players go to the team that is the highest bidder Alex Rodriquez is the biggest example of an overpaid spoiled brat. Look at Seattle since they got rid of those overpriced jerks! I am so very tired of players that make more in one game than almost every fan sitting in those seats make in 6 months that paid out his hard earned money to watch these overpaid losers to go through the motions, look at the Yankees this year they have as much or more talent than any team in Major League baseball but they can't hold a lead to save their lives and Roger Clemens is through in my opinion he couldn't even shut down a pitiful batting Baltimore team twice this year.
Then you have football players that are raping woman, beating their wives and getting busted with drugs, what are these idiots thinking? And they complain because some other player is getting paid more than they are! Give me a break you are getting paid millions of dollars to play a game that at one time I am sure they all loved! But now it is all about the money no more no less that is what all of this crap comes down to the money! They don't care about you or me the people that pay the over inflated prices so they can make millions of dollars and complain about it.
And what is up with these teams blacking out games because they don't have a sellout? In my opinion all that is, is extortion by the owners! I want to watch the Marlins play in Philadelphia but it is blacked out and I am in Florida! What do they want me to do buy a plane ticket and go to Philly? No they want you to have to pay to watch the game another fine example of these jerks telling us that if we want to watch them play mediocre ball we have to pay out our butts! A perfect example of the public being extorted!
And lets not forget the poster child for spoiled millionaires Mike Tyson this guy has been on trial so many times for raping woman, he is a complete basket case biting people and attacking people at press conferences and did anyone else see him completely lose it after he attacked Lennox Lewis he was out of control and is dangerous the only place he should be boxing is in a federal prison this guy has lost his mind and their are still people willing to let him fight! For what? You got it money bottom line and who's money are they after yours and mine the people that bust their butts to pay all that money to watch.
And any player that charges a kid to get an autograph is a sorry low life scumbag in my opinion! Here you are making millions of dollars and you are going to charge some 12 year old kid with stars in his eyes to get an autograph from a player he idolizes! I am just so totally disgusted with the state of professional sports! And if any of these jerks goes on strike I say we go on strike on them! Don't pay for that ticket to go to that baseball or football game I am tired of prices going up because these big rich greedy babies want more, so I say don't buy that ticket next time take your kid to the local amusement park and let him enjoy himself their not at some stadium where a spoiled millionaire is going to show him how to be the biggest whiner and get paid millions for it!
