You cant tell others how much they should earn...
by Venkat Krishnan on Apr 12, 2007 10:08 PM   Permalink

Indian fans are basically hypocritic and thats why we see the notion of cricketers are spoilt because they earn too much money.

- Put yourself in the cricketer's shoes, will you turn-down an advertisement if they pay you big money?
- Cricketers dont play until retirement age, they play only until max 37. Some go down much before that. They need to make the maximum in that time.
- There is nothing called "too much money".
- Finally this is a democratic country (theoretically atleast), nobody has any right to say how much others can or cannot earn.
- If you dont like it, dont watch cricket, dont buy the endorsed products. BUT PLEASE DONT CRIB THAT OTHERS ARE MAKING TOO MUCH MONEY; You would definitely do that if given a chance.
- Players playing for India is only circumstantial; They are employed by BCCI, trained by BCCI and play for BCCI.
- Fans are just non-influential stockholders of a non-public unlisted company called BCCI. Period.
