Is any base ball player worth 16 million a year?

Question

What kind of nuts pay 16 million or more a year for a base ball player , Have we become so consumed with sports we are ready to pay ball players millions when some dont even speak our
language or cant even spell cat ,,,are they more important than doctors or the president of our country,Why do we pay so much attention to sports and not academic achievement,We still have football players coming out of collage that cant read

Answer 1

As long as owners are willing to pay for it and "fans" keep showing up and buying their gear, then yes they are worth it. Are you telling me that if someone was willing to pay you 16 million a year to post answers and or questions on Y/A you would say no thanks?

Answer 2

They are not worth it, some will say that they get paid so much because their career length is so short but none of them ever invest properly anyway and end up bankrupt in a year. There should be a salary cap for all sport athletes and celebrities. It is not like they do something that actually makes a difference in our lives.

Answer 3

nicely i'd be keen to have an open marriage even with the undeniable fact that it has to bypass both thoughts. i'd be extra unhappy about the very shown truth that he'd be lengthy previous quite some the time. also i don't like activities, so as which could be a difficulty.

Answer 4

ehhh. Francis Liriano maybe...how bout Ryan Howard he gets the job done

Answer 5

They don't need to read..All they need to do is know how to sign their paychecks..Anyway, if a ballplayer is being paid 16 million it's because he is making the owner 160 million..So in relative terms.................

Answer 6
