here's a question, recessed america, who fronts the bill for athlete's exorbitant salaries? in 2008, tiger woods, america's top grossing athlete, earned close to the GDP of the Marshall Islands. really?

don't listen to this angry little girl about it, take sports illustrated:

"In a less public way, other athletes from the nation's three biggest and most profitable leagues—the NBA, NFL and Major League Baseball—are suffering from a financial pandemic. Although salaries have risen steadily during the last three decades, reports from a host of sources (athletes, players' associations, agents and financial advisers) indicate that:

• By the time they have been retired for two years, 78% of former NFL players have gone bankrupt or are under financial stress because of joblessness or divorce.

• Within five years of retirement, an estimated 60% of former NBA players are broke. "
