Of course , the monopoly media plays up the paradox that the players are paid so much, but at some level there is a message in an analogy to the boss/worker relation in the owner/player relationship. It is obvious that the owners do not add much value to the game "commodity". Why should the sports owners get so much money ?

  The oddest thing about sports strikes is the players association
strikes *for* a return to the free market while the owners want controls
put on the market(salary caps.) Countering the logic of capitalism to
restore the logic of capitalism! This fact has always left me ambivalent
about supporting the striking millionaires though I always do because
George Steinbrenner, Marge Schott and Peter Pocklington et. al. leave
such a bad taste in my mouth.
