I have committed to becoming fit as defined by being "able" to participate in normal athletic activities (as opposed to extreme sports). I have found the challenges to be mainly in the mind. The rewards for the regeneration of thinking (couch potato to active person)come with results. Consistently tough but worth it! AMEN!

Thu, 21 Jan 2010 19:58:10 +0000 http://sportsfanlunatic.com/?p=24#comment-23 This is a touchy topic but can easily be broken down into facts. The sports industry is the fastest growing industry in the US. In fact, it is twice the size of the auto industry and seven times the size of the movie industry. The sports industry estimated size(done by Plunkett Research) in 2008 is $441 billion dollars, yep, with a B. Now whether we love that or not what that means is that inside the gates of the sports industry is a flow of cash that runs in the billions. Who should pocket the cash? That can be argued but what can't be argued is that all sports business activities including the game surrounds the player's talent. If one hones a talent and gets into that industry and impacts the game to the point where they are bringing fans to their respective stadiums, what should that player's percentage of that cash pile be? Moral issues are another subject altogether, we are talking industries here. When and if the white house is able to sucker people to pay to see them banter over a bill then we can compare. If the athletes do not get there equitable cut from the industries pie then I fear we have regressed back to the beginning of our gilded age.

There are so many reasons they are overpaid..Alex Rodrigues of the New york Yankees in baseball receives $37,00 every time he swings the bat (averaged, of course). Yeah he may have worked hard..But every person with two functioning, decent arms can swing a bat at a ball. And he gets to do it for like 15+ million a year. Michael Vick made a shit load of money, and he needed to dog fight? honestly, we need better role models, I agree, they are talented, but some get paid whether they play or not..It is obvious overpayment, and anyone who says it isn't is just someone who worships sports figures too much to see that most of them are idiots who get payed more than the president of the united states to play A GAME.
