[QUOTE="champaignchris, post: 1727605, member: 26283"] I’m not trying to single you out, because I hear it all over the place. I’ve really grown to hate the whole “millionaires versus billionaires” thing. Every owner is a billionaire. Not all, or even a majority, of players are millionaires. They make mid-six figures for about three years and then have to go get a real job. It’s really easy to point at Max Scherzer making $40 million a year, but forget that his Dodgers teammate Zach Reks made about $4k plus his ~$14k minor league salary with absolutely no guarantee that he’ll even be on a MLB roster next year.
