THING OF THE WEEK

…on the THING for the Week of 04/14/2008 & 04/21/2008 :


Do you think entertainers and sports stars earn too much money? Why or why not?

message: Wow, that's a hard one! I think that they sort of do, but then again I don't. I think that they certainly earn enough money to help a lot of people, but it depends on how they use it. If they don't care what they do and live a totally happy life with billions of dollars, good for them-I'm in they backround yelling 'save the whales!'-they earn way to much money. If they earn a lot of money, live a totally normal life, and help people, no way can they earn enough! helping people helps(duh), and go Red Sox!

message: no, because they're famous and the money they have they could donate if they wanted to. and plus who would buy those awesome mansions?
name: anonymous

message: I think they do because they can get paid millions of dollars just for a guest apparence they don't need all that money.

message: For sure. All they do is swing a stupid bat around for oh sayyyy a few hours,and they get like 5 million dollars.I call [BLEEP] on that because some people do that kinda stuff for fun,sometimes rougher and sometimes they get worse injuries.And yet these guys get a little sprain and they're called out for the rest of the season. Yeah,no. They get paid WAY too much for that.
