Welcome to Our Hoosier Board!

Most of the posters here have been around for nearly a decade now. You'll find their knowledge and insight to be second to none. We have a really strong community and value everyone's opinions.

Feel free to jump into any thread and voice your opinion with conviction. We love heated debates and even some fanbase ribbing from time to time. We pride ourselves on the lack of moderation needed to make this board successful.

Please remember that we have been around many years and have an astute ability to tell the difference between an immature, childish, trash-talking troll and a passionate fan voicing his or her opinion. It is at the discretion of Jazen and myself whether any moderating actions should be taken at any given time. It's a very, very rare thing. In other words, no worries....you'll be fine!

Cheers,
sirbrianwilson

MLB - 19
NBA - 13
NFL - 11
Racing - 4
Golf - 2
Boxing - 1

I don't follow player's salaries too closely, if hardly at all, but I didn't expect to see Mayweather and Mickelson top this list.

Not surprised at all Mayweather is #1.

Very surprised by Philly Mick at #2 though.

Wow there is some terrible value on that board. Vernon Wells? Barry Zito, Josh Beckett, Kevin Kolb, Robert Mathis.

Worst Value: Probably Wells
Best value: Maybe Chris Paul?

Mayweather's salary didn't include endorsements, not sure about the others.

Yeah I was surprised Wells was on there, especially that high.

Floyd Mayweather made $85 million more than I did for not fighting Pacquiao.
