The site BlueFireBroadBrand broke down how much top earning athletes make per second. As you might expect, the totals are enough to make your head pop. First, they broke it down based on how much each league earns each second. The NHL checks in last, earning a littler over $100 every second. Keep that figure in mind the next time there’s a threat of a lockout.
It is interesting, but not surprising that the NHL is last in this study. The site also took a look at the top players in each sport. Here are the NHL’s top three:
The coolest, and most depressing thing about the website is that it shows you how much money the player has made since you visited the site. Just in case you wanted to be reminded how poor you are.
Overall the top earner is a bit of a shocker. Floyd Mayweather Jr makes over $3 every second. Think about that.
