People think it is insane that Beckham is making 250 million over 5 years, but think about how much the team owners and bringing in. I guess it really is all relative.

The criminal part of the sports-industrial complex is when someone buys a losing team, and then uses their political connections to get a new stadium built on the taxpayers dime. Then they turn around and sell the team that has this great new stadium and make a freaking killing on the deal. Essentially they're leveraging your tax dollars for their personal profit.
