One More Note on Soccer

I don't want to be like Jonathan Babineaux here and beat a dead horse dog, but let me just say one more thing about the ridiculousness of soccer.

Check out the fun little infographic below. So, granted that the highest paid NFL players are not necessarily the best in the game and often just overpaid Raiders players, the structure of the most highly paid soccer players is worrying. With the massive international popularity of the sport, you guys still can't pay your SUPERSTARS, the reason people watch the game, as much as the LIONS can afford to pay Matthew Stafford??? AND you have waaaay fewer players on your roster? Am I crazy, or is there something super fishy about that?

In conclusion, there is yet another reason to hate soccer: owners are CLEARLY taking advantage of players and not paying them what they're really worth. EVEN MORE SO than the NFL! Boo.
