You don't need to be sympathetic to the amount of taxes they have to pay, but you should be sympathetic that a player's career and health is very short and fleeting. They are part of a $20b/yr business that will use them up and then move on from them without a second thought so they should get the most money (and the most guaranteed money because it's the only thing you can be sure of) that they possibly can get in the short time they can get it.
