• No, they work hard to be in the peak physical condition, have a relatively short career and people want to see them play. So they deserve all of
  the money they get. - 18 votes
• 25%
• There should be a limit to the amount they earn because some players are getting a stupid amount of money, but they are highly skilled so it's understandable why they are paid a lot. - 11 votes
• 15%
• They don't earn too much but we are in danger of turning them into superstars. The money is worth it as long as their feet are kept on the ground. - 3 votes
