educating our youths for THEIR future and our country with increased salaries for teachers, instead the first thing to go, our teachers....It doesn't make any sense!

It's not a question of importance it's a question of how much revenue a person can produce. A baseball player may make $12 million a year but if a surgeon tried to make that kind of money, he'd go out of business and people would simply die.
The $12 million a year comes from a small amount of money from millions of people watching every game.
When a city builds an elaborate sports complex it's because they expect there to be a financial return. That return should actually help them to keep teachers on the payroll.
