Comment from : @Dodlo32888

Modern athletes are underpaid ?? 😂😂😂😂 seriously?brWhete did you get this idea ?brIn the championship in uk players get paid from 10k a week and they just train 2-3 times a week plus a match on the weekend 10k a week after taxes People that work hard barely make 10k in 6 months
Comment from : @andreiiuliandjandi

this is a total click bait video, shame on you
Comment from : @raskltube

The original 2010 source for this valuation is actually pretty hilarious:brbr"His total take home amounted to five times the earnings of the highest paid provincial governors over a similar period—enough to provide grain for the entire city of Rome for one year, or to pay all the ordinary soldiers of the Roman Army at the height of its imperial reach for a fifth of a year By today’s standards that last figure, assuming the apt comparison is what it takes to pay the wages of the American armed forces for the same period, would cash out to about $15 billion"
Comment from : @Veodin

Who would've thought the most advanced sport today is the oldest form of sport in ancient times
Comment from : @niattainniattain

So, part of the answer is "because leagues today don't have slaves that they can send to break legs" :p

Comment from : @WayneW3st

Btw, am watching S2 of Welcome to Wrexham While Wrexham certainly has the media power and money behind it, I think a peek into Notts County (higher than Wrexham in the League 2 table as of today) and Dorking Wanderers would be fascinating too 😃

Comment from : @okaydoubleu

Loved the Life of Brian reference When I travelled to Rome my wife and I walked around the Circo Massimo and we didn't know its history, how foolish of us And you reminded me I have yet to see Ben-Hur, I cannot die without watching this movie, thank you!
