What irritates me isn't the dollars. It's the "load management" BS the stars pull when they've already got their $$$ fully guaranteed. If they actually tried to play as many as possible and wound up playing 75 games a year, that's cool. But to get $30-40+ mil a year guaranteed and then skip out on 1/4 of the season while fans have no way of knowing if the players they paid to see will play that night stinks.
