Re speculates that in the future plays will "reach for the sky" and not get it. Mr. Black wishes he was in their shoes. Jane Nielsen • Jane Nielsen believes that if you take- into account the money generated through fans and sports events, it's (Gmbees contract) not out of league. The players are high profile and it is part and parcel of sports today to receive high wages. She said that the Blue Jay As- sociation is next to the Maple Leafs and they generate money into the city of Toronto. Without high profile, exciting players in a club, the interest wouldn't be there. Ms. Nielsen also reflects that without good players, there would be no interest and the SkyDome would not be able to make the revenue needed. • Tony Wartnaby Tony •Wartnaby believes the wages are way out line for all sports. Mr. Warinaby doesn't understand how you can justify giving a high salary over one year. He stated all sports' salaries have gone crazy. He would like to know how much the owners make.
