Writing Feedback / Sports professionals are genius like others professional & need to be paid well [4]
What I meant to say was that salary is not decided by the intrinsic value of a job. Professional athletes creates something of little value but sell them to billions of people all around the world. I think you should focus more on this point.
The other points you make are not objective and they just don't make much sense to me. For example a party clown makes people relaxed but why he earns little? Because only people at the party can see him. But when it comes to sports, two basketball team consists of about 20 people will attract hundreds of thousands of people to a stadium and billions of people in front of TV. Other reasons you state just don't justify their high salary like this one and they can even be used to argue your point. For example how is intelligent at sports worth millions more than intelligent at logic or music? You see what I mean? You still have a very weak point.
Also you can add some statistics when you are writing, like how much the sports industry generates and how much does an athlete make to make yourself more persuasive.
