Manny Ramirez went from $111k to $22million in just 10 years! :shock:

Check this shit out and post about anyone you think is completely overpayed or is a great value.

The Colts' total salary for '04 was $92.2 million, Manning's '04 salary was $35 million.

That's more than 1/3 of the ENTIRE team's salary COMBINED!

football salaries are a little more complicated than that. Manning doesn't actually make $35 million a year.

he's been in the league for only 2 years and wasn't a top 10 draft pick, so yeah, he's not getting paid much yet.

I see what you mean. Tom Brady is similar, his money is made up of signing bonuses. He was a low draft pick too. When these guys contracts are up I guess they will cost a few dollars for whoever signs them
