when you have to divide the cap amongst 53 players, there isn't going to be a player making a crazy amount. As it is, QBs make about 1/8 to 1/6 of the cap per team......
Basketball has 15 players, but to be honest, the last 5 are usually low paid scrubs....giving only 10 real salaries, of which 2-3 are paid quite well.
Baseball has no salary cap. They can play a $1 billion a year to a player if they wanted to without penalty. So it stands to reason why those players get so grossly overpaid.
Race car drivers and golfers get very good prize money, as well as tons of money from sponsors.
Boxers, well the main headliners, get paid huge money for fights, as they only fight 1-2 times a year....so they tend to be a large draw, especially for PPV.
With Soccer, there are a handful of world beaters out there.....those players break the bank because they bring in just stupid amounts of money for their clubs.
