Jets Griping About Free Agents getting Big Bucks

[Rajmahal33]

I agree completely, this loyalty thing wouldn't have been an issue before free agency began. In fact it was the players who pushed for this the most and who benefit the most from Free Agency. Let's also not forget that they get payed millions of dollars to play a game. The common counterargument to this is that the teams/owners make much more...THEY ARE BUSINESSMEN. They make money b/c its their business! You won't criticize a guy who owns a landscaping business for making a larger profit than his workers, will u. The difference is that those workers aren't getting paid to have fun and they are getting severely UNDERPAID.

Fans who gripe about ticket prices don't make much sense to me either. Go ahead blame, Dan Snyder and the Redskins organization for their high ticket prices. Maybe he is gouging the fan a little bit but how come no one ever blames the primadonna player who sits out and pouts. Those players inflate the market artificially every year which causes ball clubs to have to pay a lot more money and in turn this cost is footed by the fan (at some level)
