>are you rich with 700k USD in europe?
Better than the majority definitely, but I wouldn't call you rich, because i wouldn't call my parents rich either. i think they've got around that much in savings. i would call you rich here if you've got several millions. My parents house that I used to live in is worth around a million euros now, they were tied to a mortgage for over 20 years for it
First of all it doesn't really better teams, it mostly makes for bad management. Secondly the poorer teams will not be able to compete, just like in the Euro soccer leagues
>Poorer teams
There are no fricking poor teams in American sports
Every team in the big 3 is worth a least a billion dollars and everyone who owns them is a billionaire

Yes there are owners who are much less willing to spend than the Mets and the Dodgers, yes this is true.

The fricking A's spent less money last year than they did the moneyball season
That guy is worth $2 billion and he's only spend $20 million on players
It's fricking outrageous
This is why American sports are cucked
These teams get taxpayer funded stadiums, sell $500 tickets, $20 hot dogs, $100 parking spots, and have the audacity to not spend money? Are you fricking kidding me?
I wish we had pro/rel over here. I fricking hate those lazy ass owners that have no accountability and American fans are just too cucked to give a shit.
Your salary cap is a lie. I watch your sport and teams go over the cap all the times especially the winningest teams. The draft and revenue in your sport did more for parity than the salary cap
>The draft and revenue in your sport did more for parity than the salary cap
I don't disagree >a lie
So you think that removing the caps in NFL/NBA would change absolutely nothing? I disagree. Luxury tax in baseball is not a cap and might be doing nothing, idk.

I agree, frick that guy. Pro/rel would be too based for owner-dominated American sports. Maybe a minimum salary?
>PSG
yes because they are allowed to manipulate their financial statements being chronically losing money and injecting Qatar money via fake sponsorships
>Frauderer
Wish I looked like a cro-magnon and could make $90M on advertisements and be utter shit at the sport I play
it must be nice
Doesn't Messi advertise everything? He should be making more, he did pepsi, Saudi tourism.
>He's a tennis player
>From Switzerland
>He does it for free
I thought handegg would dominate this with how much ads they have
There's a salary cap plus 53 active players on a team
are you rich with 700k USD in europe?
Argentina
yes
Upper middle class depending on where you live. You're definitely well off.
you're rich at 8 figures and wealthy at 9 figures. 700,000 gets you an okay middle class home in most of the world

I shudder to think of American sports without salary caps. Every team would be like the Mets this offseason
Idk why Americans see that as a bad thing
Why the frick wouldn't you want teams to spend? Frick the Pirates

*make better teams
Your salary cap is a lie. I watch your sport and teams go over the cap all the times especially the winningest teams. The draft and revenue in your sport did more for parity than the salary cap
The MLS Beckham rule is a great system imo, would make the game in Europe much more competitive

The draft is bullshit
The cap is the only thing keeping teams in line
is messi a billionaire yet?
>Ameribrokeassbitches
all these basketball players make more than tom brady?
the sport isn't even as popular as the nfl though
15 man rosters vs 53 man rosters
At least half of those guys are backups that barely play. Surely they don't take up much of the salary allotment
They don't which is why LeBron gets more of it
I'm talking about the football team
Ok so... 5 starters per team vs. 22 starters per team.
>poors
Their economy is greater and megafake thus those players worth half
Wasn't Mbappe going to be paid higher than Messi?
The obsession with us is unreal
>PSG
yes because they are allowed to manipulate their financial statements being chronically losing money and injecting Qatar money via fake sponsorships
red pill me on that greek guy
never heard of him before
He's not really Greek
He's as related to Socrates as any other modern Greek.
