26.8.11 Samuel Eto'o

How on earth can kicking a football ever deserve being paid £336,000 - per week!  After tax!!

I have not put a question mark at the end of this, because I am not actually asking a question; I know the answer already.  The lunacy that is prevalent in the world of football is destroying completely everything that was good, once upon a time.  The stupidity of the rise in wages makes the industrial revolution look like a minor revision to working practices at a speed akin to a meandering slug.  It is obscene that a player can earn in one day what many earn in a year.  I use the word 'earn' in its loosest sense, because basically these are blokes who get paid to keep fit, and kick a ball about (if they're not sick, injured, suspended or dropped by the manager) twice a week, maybe.  Madness.
