Soccer players are overpaid

First, fresh impressions after derby match Manchester Utd. vs. Manchester City.
I saw better football on amateur matches on Ex-employees and workers' games organized by Trade Union in Yugoslavia.
Small stadium, prefabricated wooden seats, hundreed spectators, odour of griled meat and ox spit roast in club restaurant, beer that is chilled in a ditch filled with water with water hose, old players with extra weight and less hair than usual...

And those overpaid phonies just a minute ago, they are not capable to kick the ball properly.

I suppose it applies also for cricket, baseball and American Rugby, also phony sports for illiterate plebs, but I can't tell, I never understood them.

The highest paid American athletes play basketball.

Who's even watching the chav vs. chav match? Atlético de Madrid just
did Celta de Vigo in, amigo.

Who does deserve to earn a Million $ oder € a year?

Capitalists are overpaid too as are a lot of CEO's lawyers, Hollywood stars...

Oh and yes if I would be offered a Job with that salary I would be tempted to accept 😉
