About this Quote

In this quote, Jerry West is sharing his opinion on cost-free agency in sports. He acknowledges that cost-free agency is advantageous for professional athletes, as it allows them to make a large amount of cash. Nonetheless, he does not believe that complimentary agency aids the sporting activities themselves. He believes that totally free agency has an unfavorable influence on sporting activities, as it can bring about teams shedding their celebrity gamers as well as having to reconstruct their rosters. This can result in a decline in group efficiency and a reduction in follower rate of interest. West thinks that complimentary agency can be detrimental to the general health and wellness of sporting activities, which it should be utilized with care.
