Chiefs head coach Andy Reid was rich, but now he is richer.

Given that the word "earn" is sort of ridiculous when it's this much money, but . . . he's kind of earned it, though?

Yes, he's earned highest honors in his profession.  He's really, really good at his job, so he should be paid accordingly.

 

We can also say that, in professional sports, "earning top dollar" has become nonsensical. 

Ability and performance have taken a back seat to "the market".   

Your huge contract comes from the "market"; your team pays you because they don't want another team to sign you.

If your team can't afford your market demands, they let you go, even if you're the best player/coach in the world.

That they're doing this in prime time tells you just how popular it is. I read yesterday that more people watched the Superbowl this year than watched the most watched NBA game ever.

Moving the Draft to prime time was a money-making dream come true.  It is now a game show / Reality TV drama, and the fans and media are loving every minute.  It’s made the NFL more popular, but it has also made it more corrupt.

A.J. Brown :  3 years, $96 million, $84 million guaranteed  :blink:  

 

Brown is now the highest paid NFL player who is not a QB or Nick Bosa.

The last three years he's scored 7, 11, and 5 touchdowns, averaging around 14yds per catch and 1,300 yds.  How much is that per score or per yard?  :blink:

As a Fantasy Football owner who had Brown on his team last year, my assessment of his new contract is rather biased.....AGAINST HIM!!  :rage:  :biggrin:
