Especially when you consider Belichick is seen as the great American football manager in history (someone might correct me on that one). I'm sure you can say that the football market is a lot bigger than the American football market, but still, you know the Patriots owners are making an absolute mint from him and the rest of the team.

i was listening to freakanomics the other day and the guy was saying the sports industry is overrated, meaning—it’s regarded as more important that its actual size.

apparently, the cardboard box industry is about the same size as sports, lol.

i should have gotten into boxmaking.

but anyway, guardiola is watched by bazillions more people than this dude on a much more regular basis than this sport.
