Sports pros in my nation have become stars and celebrities as a consequence of continual media attention, and those at the top are given big incomes.
They live luxurious lifestyles with large mansions and vehicles, much like Hollywood stars.
Many individuals believe their pay is unjust, especially when compared to that of top doctors, research scientists, or even senior politicians charged with administering the country.
Sports pay, on the other hand, are not decided by a person's contribution to society or amount of responsibility.
Instead, they reflect the overall appeal of sports and the amount of public support that great athletes can elicit.
So "fairness" isn't a problem.
Those who believe that sports stars are justified may claim that there are few pros with true skill, and that money is a motivator.
