As a side note, just like with cards, cars and houses, I feel like sports salaries have gotten way too out of hand. Hell Ted Williams in his last season ever got paid $125,000 or the equivalent to a little over 1.2 Million. No ballplayer today, regardless of sport, should be making anything more than that!
Agreed, it's like paying for the most bottles in a strip club, owners have done themselves and the game a disservice, can't we get back to a competitive team, 3 dollar beers, and 20 bucks admission?
And take the extra dough and pay classroom teachers more?
