Really they don't owe much to the family of the players    the players are the employees  outside of insurance my job doesn't give perks to family members lol

Here's the thing with that in my opinion.  Being some of the best in the world at something does indeed come with perks.  Sure someone working an everyday job doesn't get them.  But the higher up you go the more perks there are.  Then there is also the aspect of teams wanting to attract players.  So one team offers a lot of perks for family members and word spreads.  Then players compare and maybe to some degree expect certain things based on either where they played before or what they know players from other teams are getting.  If a player hears or has experienced another team doing more to support families, their kids are given a nice day care, they host events for family members and such and they realize their team is doing less they are probably going to grade their team lower.

Now certainly some if not most players won't care as much and will take more money via a contract for less of those perks. But when surveyed they will probably still give the team poor grades.   Sure they can afford nice things for their family.  But if a team like the Cowboys is doing a lot and a team like the Bengals is doing very little the survey results will reflect that.
