Message: [QUOTE="Cuango, post: 3224436, member: 3834"] “I can’t imagine that many of the Euro teams make money...” Maybe they do. Regardless, writing the problem off as “typical American greed” is ludicrous. Until the W can start making a profit, little will change. The clear implication is that they (owners) should simply pay the players like the men because that is the fair thing to do. I would be willing to bet a lot (for me) of money that if the NBA suddenly stopped making big bucks, the idiotic salaries would soon go the way of the Dodo bird. I’m all for these players making more money! Diana is one of my all time sports heroes but If I owned the Mercury, I would still expect them to turn a profit before I started paying them as if they were on par with the NBA. [/QUOTE]
