Sports are one of the highest money earning businesses in the world. The NFL of America and the Barclays Football (a.k.a. Soccer) Premier League of England are the most popular sports in their respective countries. They bring in more money than most people will ever see and that is a major problem for me. In general, the entire way these businesses are set up is flawed because of how unequal they are. Teams aren’t judged by how good they are anymore, but how much money they have, especially in the Barclays Premier League. The NFL tries to avoid this by using a salary cap, which proves to be quite effective. In General, for me, a communist, I completely disagree with how both businesses are run, from the CEO’s, the player’s, to the integrity because it’s unjust and unequal for the true people at work, the working class.
The Barclay’s Premier League is dominated by four teams Arsenal FC, Chelsea FC, Manchester United, and Liverpool. These teams make up the “Big Four”, basically the capitalist’s. It’s based on those teams who will win the championship. This happens because of their financial backings. These teams are owned by billionaires who can buy the best players in the world, and in effect have the best team. The league, though, isn’t consisted of just four teams. The league is consisted of twenty teams, so what about the other sixteen teams? These guys actually have to work very hard to get even close of winning the championship. If the top four teams are known as the “Big Four” or the capitalists, then the rest should be known as the “working class.” It’s really unfair because they are in actuality playing for nothing. They think they are playing for something, but how can that be if they never win the championship? This completely diminishes the true nature of sports, and of its rigor. The league should be set up so that all teams have the same amount of money. This way, there’s no longer any “Big Four” because there won’t be any way to distinguish teams...
