STRIKES AND OVER PAID SPORTS PLAYERS REPORT------
---------------------------------
THE NINE-TEEN NINETY SPORTS SEASON WAS THE SADDEST AND
MOST UNSPORTY SEASON EVER.
WHAT IS WRONG WITH PRO SPORTS PLAYERS THESE DAYs
THEY EARN MILLIONS OF DOLLARS AND THEY STILL WANT MORE!!
TALK ABOUT GREEDY!! ALL THEY DO IS PLAY A GAME THAT IS SUPPOSED
TO FUN AND THEY GET PAID. MANY KIDS ACROSS THE U.S. DON'T GET
PAID TO PLAY SPORTS BUT RATHER PAY TO PLAY. KIDS PLAY SPORTS
FOR FUN AND ADULTS SPORTS PLAYERS DON'T EVEN KNOW WHAT THE
WORD FUN MEANS. ALL THEY TALK ABOUT IS WINNING, MONEY, AND
MORE MONEY.
FIRST THE BASEBALL PLAYER WALKED OUT BECAUSE OF THE SALARY
CAP. THEY PLAYERS AND OWNERS DISAPPOINTED MANY BASEBALL FANS.
HOCKEY ALSO WALK OUT FOR HALF THE SEASON. THEY TO OPPOSED THE
SALARY CAP. YOU THINK THEY WOULD BE HAPPY WITH A GOOD DENTAL
PLAN!!
AN OTHER THING THAT IS REALLY PATHETIC IS HOW SPORTS
PLAYERS SHOW OFF. FOR EXAMPLES, DIEON SANDERS CAN'T EVEN
CATCH A PASS OR INTERCEPTION WITH OUT DOING A DANCE OR POKE
FUN OF THE OTHER TEAM. OR MANY DEFENSIVE LINE MEN AFTER THEY
GET A SACK WILL HOOVER OVER THE QUARTER-BACK AND YELL AND
MAKE FUN OF HIM.
25,35,ANND 40 MILLION ARE JUST SOME OF THE AVERAGE
SALARIES
OF SPORTS PLAYERS. THIS IS NOT INCLUDING THE EXTRA 3 MILLION
THAT THEY EARN DOING COMMERCIALS.
DIEON SANDERS , MICHAEL JORDAN , AND EMMIT SMITH ARE JUST
A FEW EXAMPLES OF PRO SPORTS PLAYER THAT EARN OVER 30 MILLION
DOLLARS NOT INCLUDING THE COMMERCIAL MONEY.
ONLY ONE WORD COULD DESCRIBE THE '94 HOCKEY AND BASEBALL
SEASON AND THAT WORD IS PATHETIC!
IT IS A PROVEN FACT THAT SPORTS PLAYERS EARN MORE MONEY
THAN THE PEOPLE WHO DESERVE IT SUCH AS DOCTORS, LAWYERS,
FACTORY WORKERS, AND TEACHERS.
THE THING THAT IS REALLY SAD IS THAT THE PLAYERS ABUSE
THERE MONEY. INSTEAD OF GIVING MONEY TO THE POOR, THEY SPEND IT
ON BIG HOUSES AND FLASHY CARS.
THIS IS VERY SAD THAT THE FUN AS BEEN TAKEN OUT OF THESE SPORTS
ALL BECAUSE OF GREED.
