Trading Nightmare

Its because of capitalism. Every person has the right to seek employment and get paid what they deserve. You are right it does make it difficult to create a loyalty with teams, which is why we cheer for laundry and not players.

Yeah that makes sense. It all has to do with $$$. I guess it's just part of American culture (not being racist!).

Every culture has that money is what drives the world not just sports. Every sporting culture suffers from this. Why did rugby go pro in 1996?(except the USA) Money. Look at the EPL and other Premire soccer leagues across Europe players are constantly shifted and moved for monitary reasons.

And if we want to be technical here, Pnatt should not have included the NFL, which has very few trades. Most of the player movement takes place within free agency.

ohh sorry i guess ive been an ignorant Australian!

Didnt mean suffer in a bad way, I agree I like the fact that players have the right to move and make money. Just meant that every sport is affected by trades and players looking to find the most money for performing their trade. I know thats what I do at work and would leave my own company if I could find a place to do the same job for more money. I see nothing wrong with that.
