of course cause you asked a question with your mind already made up and unwilling to be changed. How much are you willing to say that Steph as an individual player is worth? Throw out a number.
and it's not a copout it's a fact as a reason that the paying field is so uneven. Fewer assets yes, because not as many assets are needed, but they have 5x the ability to create the most important stream of revenue and that's games.

Steph Curry is worth at bare minimum 55M a season.......

Let me bring another name....do you think Tom Brady should be paid more or is more valuable than Lebron James? And we will use your premise that Brady's team and league is worth more?

One of my mom's friends went to Australia a few years ago. She didn't find Aussies to be racist, people who live there believe the US is racist and somalis in Australia are frightened of the US.

There is classism in Australia but the disparity between rich and poor is not as big as the US or the UK.
Australians still have the optimism and still have disdain over the elite while they are worshipped in the US.

In Australia the billionaires and upper classes still feel the need to pretend to be lower class, and are not comfortable showing off.

I got that sense in Germany and Sweden when I've traveled there.

Australians themselves say Australians are racist. All peoples are cordial to tourists out of novelty; living with tourists enacts the more base racist response.

There are no blacks in sports management in Europe, Australia, etc like the USA. The USA stomps other countries in terms of real diversity at the highest levels, which is what matters imho.

the popular sports over there though aren't majority black, so no nikkaz makes sense. It's like expecting a lot of Asians to be in that position here.

For a team that makes 520 m a year Brady by himself is worth close to 90 and no he's not worth closely to what Bron is but no athlete is. He's an individual that's bigger than the sport, as big as he is, Steph isn't there yet. but I will say that the closest a NFL player will ever get to that is Peyton and Brady.

Incorrect
As an example, 25% of players in the English Premier League are black, yet there are virtually no black managers who ever get a chance.
Black soccer managerial candidates allege racism is a strong roadblock preventing them from getting hired:

As mentioned before, if the NFL Players and NFLPA aren't willing to go on strike for multiple seasons they won't ever see anything close to that type of guaranteed money. One season isn't enough. Owners have all the leverage and the court of public opinion on their side and the weak NFLPA is gonna get fukked even more in the next NFL CBA negotiation.

The players only chance if ratings decline to a point where the networks start really complaining and revenues drop drastically. This is assuming the players can stand united which I don't think they will. And this is before we get into the numbers game.

talking Australia fam. Just came from there.

Premier league is definitely :mjpls:

Australians are probably the same. I can't see any racism from Premier League when I watch yet the numbers make no sense. I don't see why Australia would be different

While there is room to improve (as in actual fairness), the USA is the only Western country which demonstratively gives black men any chance at high profile high paying positions like CEO, law partner, sports manager, etc.
