                    I don't mind grown men being paid millions
                
                At least they're honest about being in it for the money. What bothers me is college athletes who profess  to be playing for the love of the game while being paid under the table. Even the one's who aren't being paid are not legitimate college students. They're professional athletes masquerading as college students.
For more on this, see my post about Billy Donovan. (shameless plug:)

                    To me...
                
                baseball is always great, despite all the cheating.

                Because our priorities are out of whack.  The same reason we pay actors, musicians and all other entertainers millions?

                On this topic I am often lost, why do we pay grown men millions to play them?

                    Sorry, sports have always been a little boring for me,
                
                but that's just me.  Now I hear they are having rock, paper, scissors tournaments! And there's some really wacky extreme sports on Discovery channel sometimes!
