Good point on the destination, makes sense on one hand.
The flip side is that the minimum wage earners make 10X + on the national average for working America. They should be able to differentiate between work and play (I know some do & most don't) and go to MIA in the off season. It is easy to say and very hard to do but still the players should behave accordingly.
$200/hr X 40 hrs/week X 50 weeks/year = $400,000.00/yr. How many of us get paid $200.00/hr??? How can I get in that club???
