Men (USA Rugby team) VS NFL big babies






How much do USA Rugby players make?
All player contracts were held by the league, not by the individual teams. Players earned salaries, on average, of around $25,000, with national team players making closer to $40,000. The top players in the competition earn close to $70,000.

Comparing a privately owned entity like the NFL to any National team (NBA/NHL/Rugby/Soccer) is at the very best a stretch and in reality not even applicable.

Nice try though.
