Why do athletes make so much money?

Yes they get paid too much not only do they get paid for the sports they play they also get paid for their endorsements which only doubles their pay. Porfessional athletes don't even contribute to the forward progress of society. They do not save peoples lives, or help people. All they are are people with a natural talent showing off. Some athletes do volunteer their personal time and donate to charitable causes. They also help to set good examples to our youth to play sports rather than do drugs. This is why its very dissapointing when an athlete who is looked up to screws up some how with drugs, drunk driving, steroids etc.

Why shouldn't an athlete be paid as much as they are right now?

Athletes should not be paid as much as they are now because they lose the love of the game and start playing for the money. Athletes need to focus on the game to make it more enloyable for the players and the audience. The only reason that they are still playing and making money is because of the viewers so they need to play for the enjoyment of others and have fun doing it. I believe if they lower the salary then they will get more out of sports.
