Joe Morgan is a sportscaster and former baseball player. After he stated that he thought the salaries of Major League Baseball players were justif ied, a baseball fan wrote the following to Rob Neyer, a sports columnist:
Mr. Neyer,
What are your feelings about Joe Morgan's comment that players are justified in being paid what they're being paid? How is it ok for A-Rod [New York Yankees infielder Alex Rodriguez] to earn $115,000 per GAME while my boss works 80 hour weeks and earns $30,000 per year?
How would you answer this fan's questions?
