    Sportsmen and women deserve their high salaries because they are entertainers who bring joy to entire countries and have a difficult job serving as examples. While some jobs may be more important to society, few people have the talent required to excel at sports under intense pressure over long training hours. Additionally, other entertainers like famous singers and actors earn similar or higher pay without criticism. Overall, sportspeople are not useless and bring happiness that justifies their compensation.

    A)

    Some people believe that the salaries of sportsmen and women are way too high in
    comparison to de job that they have and the role they play in our society.
    Personally, I don’t agree with this affirmation; but that doesn’t mean that other jobs
    shouldn’t be as well paid as these, because of their importance.
    In the first place, I think it´s important to clarify that sportspeople aren’t useful to
    society, they are entertainers, and as such they deserve the salaries that they earn. Many
    football players, like Leo Messi, bring joy to entire countries, they bring happiness in
    times of crises, and I think not many people have the talent or the power to do that.
    Aside from that, people tend to criticise the amount of money these people make, but
    when it comes to other types of entertainers, nobody seems to disagree in terms of their
    pay checks. Famous singers and actors make as much money as sportspeople, even
    more, but no one seems to be bothered by this fact.
    Lastly, there are very important factors related to these huge salaries, like the fact that
    there are few people that can handle the amount of pressure, the long hours of training,
    and that have the ability to stand out in a sea of players. Not everyone has the talent and
    the self-discipline to be great at a sport, and I think that’s why they earn more money
    than the average worker.
    In conclusion, I don´t think one could say that sportsmen and women are useless,
    replaceable, or that the impact that they have on society is minor in comparison to
    doctors or teachers. They have the very difficult job of being an example for a lot of
    people, and to bring joy to the mases, and that reflects on how they are rewarded.

    B)
    With the advances of technology more and more sports are transmitted on television
    every day; there are even whole channels dedicated to live sports events.
    In my opinion, the advantages of this are way more than the disadvantages. This makes
    sports more accessible to everyone, and gives a lot of visibility to disciplines that weren
    ´t televised before.
    Nowadays, people that don’t have the resources to attend to expensive games, or that
    have some accessibility problems, are able to watch every single match of their
    favourite team, which democratises entertainment for everyone who’s interested.
    Aside from that, there are a lot of sports and teams that are receiving new sponsors and
    financial aids due to de visibility and the new fans they’ve gained, all thanks to televised
    events. This has a lot of positive consequences, like children practicing new sports,
    having different role models to look up to, and athletes that now can make a living out
    of their talent.
    On the other hand, a minor disadvantage might be the intervention of artificial
    intelligence, like the “V.A.R.” in football, that sometimes denaturalizes the sport, in
    order to make it more correct and TV worthy.
    In conclusion, one could say that television and technology have been a blessing to
    almost everyone involved in the sports ambiance, helping a great amount of athletes,
    and bringing fans closer together with sportspeople and teams.
