Each time I hear or read someone say pro sports should be banned or go away or outlawed because athletes are overpaid, I wonder what people think about. Sports, whether they are pro or amateur are major industries in our world and contribute mightily to economies worldwide. To ban sports would be banning millions of jobs everywhere. Just for the fun of it, make a list of how many people would lose their jobs if just one sport were done away with, let alone all sports. What needs to be done is to create salary caps in all pro sports. The sports situation needs to redesigned, not eliminated. Here's my partial list,feel free to add to it: The players/athletes themselves, coaches, trainers, equipment managers, front office personnel, ticket sellers, ticket takers, all vendors, food suppliers, food deliverers, ticket printers, custodians, sport equipment makers and suppliers, uniform makers, ground crews, scoreboard operators, and so on ad infinitum. I'm out of characters to work with GO4IT
