Professional sportsmen gain a lot of publicity and money in thier lifetime.It just shows that people nowadays are more active and want to be healthy and energized.So they look upon athletes or other sports players as thier idol.Serious artists are not popularized much compared to sportstars because most of us find them very boring.

Nowadays sports and games have taken a huge place in everyones lifestyle.people are more aware of thier health and try to be on thier toe always.Hence,they try to immitate and follow the active people of the society.Naturally,they get all the attention.Studies have shown that very small range of people can appreciate theatrical plays.whereas,large number of men love games and want to play them as routine.

For instance,in many countries cricket is very popular and cricketers get all the attention from press and media.one reason behind it is players in cricket show immense dedication and sportsmanship on the ground.That is inspirational to people.However,the real effort of musicians or artists are not shown directly on thier work.we like music but we cannot identify the musicians.

As many of us know life of a player is very short and they need to be credited for thier contribution.Paying high salary is one among them.Many argue that games being such an role in our lifetime,players should be recognised and given all the advantages.It is also a undeniable factor that people like rugby or football players are prone to injuries and trauma to thier body and thus thier huge pay is agreeable.

In conclusion,people love sports and inturn they try to follow sporstars lifestyle.For the mere factor that thier effort can be seen on the sports feild.
