Can't blame the players for the above. The owners are not being smart with their money and acting like kids in a candy store.
Yes..."OTHER EXPENSES".
Did YOU read the entire article? They spend way too much on choice hotels, fancy private chartered planes and if they are to attend a league event, super fancy cars picking the players and coaches up.
Keep reading, especially the link associated to the this article:

I especially loved THIS part:
OK, so you're saying the owners need to stop paying for these things for the players. Got it.

OK so you think the owners should put the players up in second rate hotels and let the players fly coach. Understand.

OH GOD, did you see ANYWHERE where I said that?!! Really? Seriously? What I am saying is that they go overboard in everything they pay for...when you do that, of course it's going to cost. You cannot hold the players accountable for how the owners spend their money.
You guys moan and bitch about how coddled players are...but yet...over never mind...we live in a world that want it both ways.
I'm pretty sure the players would throw a hissy fit or demand to be traded if the owners cheaped out on travel and overnight expenses.
And I am sure that the moment the owners would show that it is not part of the CBA and that they would give in to some of their demands in return to slowly phasing out some of the extreme high end luxury they get... EVERYTHING is negociable.
Yeah, the players (and probably an internet poster) would make a huge stink if the owners cut back on expense that players directly get the benefit of. Yet when the owners do spend the money on them, they blame the owners for that too.
Some people want it both ways.
