I'm for the owners TBH. I think the players make way too much money. I think the owners take far more risk in owning a team than a player playing a sport. What is their earning potential outside athletics? A business owner can probably do something similar with those skills and still make an impact....what about a basketball player? Is throwing a ball inside a hoop going to earn them money in the business world or whatever field they probably aren't qualified for? No. Am I saying they should be making $20 an hour...no.....But I think its reasonable to say they can make a little less off the high end salaries. Does Lebron James really need to make 18 million per year? Is he going to be cheated by making 12 million a year? Let them make the difference up in endorsements and personal appearances. Make them more accessible to the average fan....
