It's going to be funny to see everyone come in here and defend the un-American practice that is the salary cap.

Sadly in 2015 nothing is more American than corporatism

Aren't a lot of the top tier soccer clubs losing money because of overspending?

Top basketball, football and baseball players are welcome to play elsewhere

Take out the boxers and race car drivers and the United Sates professional athletes make up 17 of the 20 spots.
What a poorly thought out troll...

Horrible thread

That list has to be wrong. I don't see any MMA fighters on the list.

$23.4 mil for Amare. Ouch.

Eric Gordon definitely should have been paid more.

They don't release even 1/4 of what the top guys make, for some fighters they disclose much less than that.

Stop spitting all those facts buddy

Most top tier clubs are just toys for their billionaire owners and they're independent clubs, not franchises so the leagues don't care. Its just a different mentality. The owners know they're going to lose money and they're fine with it.
