Shame on these imbeciles. Clubs should make public the names of these
inadequate members of our communities.

your first sentence is entirely accurate. The amount they earn is irrelevant. This has nothing to do with money whatsoever.

It's just a fact that young people think they are smarter than they are; and are increasingly under pressure to prove that they are independent thinkers. Personally I believe that footballers are, on average, pretty intellegent, pretty decent people. They just happen to be in their early 20s.

One of them will soon be a herman cain award winner and then things will rapidly change. But linking this to what they get paid is a bit daft really. Young people do stupid shit, and the vast majority of football players are young people. Yes its selfish and yes it's stupid. But it's just youth. That's all.
