re: Pro athletes are paid too much

They’re paid too much in the sense that they’re too valuable to actually put their bodies on the line the way they used to. Which is why they got so highly paid to begin with. Now they load manage and are softening up the physicality of the sports because they can’t afford to lose those players to injury because they’re worth too much.

If that makes sense. Used to be guys didn’t have nearly as much on the line so they played hard. Now we clearly see guys score big contracts and then coast because in reality they’re getting paid no matter what. Basically every player is turning into Roger Dorne from Major League.
