Re: OT: Highest Paid Athletes 2005
How is Oscar De La Hoya making 40 million a year? That's just ridiculous.

That is who I thought would be on top of the list. Is he not making close to 25 - 30 million a year?

Yeah I mean just counting his pay just from Ferrari he should be making at least 30 million a year. I got this from Forbes Celebrity 100 List for 2004 which says he was making 80 million a year with his annual salary approaching 40 million a year.
