members, join the OWS protests.

IMO, paying professional athletes or their team owners millions of dollars, while people are being told that school Teachers are overpaid, is ridiculous.

I think that the "earnings playing field" should be leveled so that all workers and "owners" salaries are commensurate with each other. To say that average people, doing their jobs, are not worth a living wage or health care as a right; is a sham and unsustainable. People enjoy watching professional sports. It has become reality that to go to a game is financially impossible for many and for those average workers who can afford it, they usually have to use binoculars from the cheap seats if they want to watch the game.

While the wealthy have their private suites....
