In fact, combined salaries of the sports baseball, basketball, and football in America totaled nearly 9 billion dollars ("How Much Pro Athletes Pay in Federal Income Tax”)! Professional sports teams should not pay their players, even the great ones, as large of salaries as they…

a famous soccer player, bank account. While other people are unemployed, he, other professional athletes, and entertainers make millions of dollars a year. I do not agree that professional athletes and entertainers should earn large sums of money because America is in an economic crisis, they do not teach Americans valuable lessons, and also the money could be used for medical research.

Some people may look at their favorite sports athlete or the president of the United States as an example. Other individuals may even say people like a deranged serial killer like Charles Manson or evil fictional characters like The Joker or The Green Goblin are their models of aspiration. Like these people, I also have two entities that I look up to…

tools and some of them might have collected them since they were in college training school. It would be so amazing, especially, for those who love hand-on work and are able to fix stuffs using their own tools.

Americans love high performance and we love technology. Why, then, do we get our knickers in a twist when professional athletes—think Lance Armstrong or A-Rod—turn out to have achieved their great feats with a boost from performance-enhancing drugs and other banned technologies? Not everyone turns up their nose when a high-profile athlete dopes. Some offer excuses: the pressure to perform is overwhelming, and the rewards are too tempting to resist.
