Yeah but theyre all over payed, no one should have more than maybe 5 million worth in assetts total
Not athletes, actors, musicians, politicians, etc There are people working just as hard in factories and on farms keeping civization running for 40k a year
Not that politicians work hard
 Few of them do anything productive at all

Yeah there's no doubt that the amount of money these people get paid is utterly ridiculous and over the top, but thing is, the money that's made off professional sports (for example) is in the billions. The television money makes up the bulk of it, and then there's the gate money (the people who actually attend). And that's not even counting the money that's made off apparel sales (hats, shirts, jackets, jerseys, etc.).
Somebody's going to get that money.
And people pay to see the athletes. Just like people pay to see certain actors & actresses. They're going to command a lion's share just due to the crazy cash flow that's being made off what they do.
I'm in total agreement that what they do is no more meaningful in actual real life than other professions -- in fact it's way less meaningful than damn near just about everything, but entertainment, whether it's sports or movies or whatever, the masses pay to watch.
A doctor for example is infinitely more important to the world than a pro athlete or an actor -- but the masses don't pay to watch them perform. They do on the other hand come out in droves to watch athletes/actors/actresses perform.
Shit ain't fair but like I said earlier somebody's going to get that cash as long as the masses keep pouring in the money.

I dont think actors lack meaning in their work. As interesting as my life has been, I can only live my own story, artists open up a window into their lives for others. To me thats more valuable than anything, art is the only thing which seperates us from animals.
Animals eat, shit, fuck and die, only humans can stage the Götterdämmerung

I appreciate amazing feats of athleticism. Football, baseball, basketball, soccer, whatever... I just enjoy watching these people who are the best in the world at their sport using the skills they have spent their entire lives perfecting.
I have teams I root for. I cheer when they do well, and yell at the TV when they don't, but as soon as the game is over my life isn't changes by whether they won or lost. It's just good entertainment. Especially a close, and hard fought game. What else on TV is live and totally unscripted? Anything can happen.

Yeah I did. Barry was a once in a generation talent. Too bad he had to waste away in the wasteland that is the Detroit Lions...1 playoff win during his entire career there, smh.
But yes it was a pleasure seeing him play.

If you like the Patriots you're not a sports fan, just a front running silly nanny.  You don't experience pain from your team. Cause they are stacked. And have been for all of this millennia
