Recently the topic of whether the professional athletes deserve highsalaries to be paid has aroused heated discussion. Unfair as it looks at firstsight, paying more for the professional athletes than for others is actuallyreasonable from a profound perspective. Several factors, such as the hugeprofits they bring and the hard work they pay contribute to the issue.Therefore, I note that the professional athletes deserve high salaries to bepaid. The reasons will be furtherillustrated as follows.
To begin with, the professional athletes, especially those famous ones,bring a huge amount of profits to their club. For instance, the annual salaryof YaoMing, the famous Chinese basketball player who serves for NBA, is about10 million dollars, which is pretty high for most common people. While thenumber of his annual salary is only about one tenth of the profits that he canmake to his club through his personal influence such as some fans buy thecompetition tickets in order to support their idol. So considering hiscontributions made to the club, Yao is qualified as such a high salaries paidbasketball player, so are other professional athletes.
Moreover, in order to be professional athletes, they have to pay copiousamount of hard work behind people. For example, Messi, the famous footballplayer, has to train everyday and only has rested few days over the past decadesince he has become a professional football player. In addition, theprofessional athletes not only are under huge mental pressure since their tinymistake in competition may lead to the total failure of their team, but alsohave to bear many physical injuries and pains. No pains, no gains. Therefore,their high salaries are compatible to their hard working.
Admittedly, it is undeniable that the salaries paid for those professionalathletes such as football player and basketball players are much higher thancommon people. However, they pay much more than common people and they play animportant role in the field, too. Hence their high value makes them deserved highsalaries.
Taking all the factors discussed above into consideration, I believe thatthe professional athletes deserve high salaries to be paid.
