Any AMERICAN sport maybe. Those Euros flow freely in the Premier League, La Liga, etc.

And I thought LB was closer to 5. I guess he's got a good reason to stay here, huh?

To put things in perspective: Don Nelson gets $6 million, $1 million less than LB. That's like saying LB gets paid $1 million more than a monkey.

I saw this a week or so ago and it surprised the crap out of me. I figured LB would get more than the Idiot (obviously), but LB had just got a settlement from the Knicks the year before for 18 million. I was figuring south of 5 million easy, esp. considering Jordan and rebuilding his rep from the NY debacle.

And some said Johnson was cheap.
