Recently I was given a FORBES MAGAZINE that had the richest teams and players in professional sports around the world in it. The issue was the AUGUST 9, 2010 issue titled THE WAY TO WIN ON WALL STREET NOW with a top caption of SPORTSMONEY 50*50 RICHEST TEAMS AND ATHLETES. Every hardcore sports fan or BLUEDUDE SPORTSTALK BLOGGER must get this issue or check it out online its fascinating to say the least. You think you know and you have no idea that some of these teams or sports bank like this. I was probably right on a little over half the list but European Soccer and Nascar teams blew me away.

The list from the FORBES MAGAZINE ISSUE AUGUST 9,2010 TOP 10 only reads as this:

Teams Sport Value($bil/$mil)
1. Manchester United Soccer 1.835
2. Dallas Cowboys Football 1.650
3. Bronx Bombers Baseball 1.600
4. Washington Redskins Football 1.550
5. NE Pats Football 1.361
6. Real Madrid Soccer 1.323
7. NY Football Giants Football 1.183
8. Arsenal Soccer 1.181
9. New York Jets Football 1.170
10. Houston Texans Football 1.150

An incredible list and Manchester United owned by the Glazer Family also owns the TB Buccaneers who are #12 on this list. 6 NFL teams and 4 European Soccer clubs are just amazing. This also goes to show you why the NFL TV deal is so huge and that soccer is the world's most popular sport. New York being the largest City in the US has not shockingly by any stretch #3 Bombers, #7 G-men, #9 J-E-T-S, #38 Amazins', and #50 Knickerbockers of the NBA. That is some serious Cheddar in GOTHAM CITY.

Now the top 10 Richest Athletes in FORBES MAGAZINES AUGUST 9, 2010 ISSUE TITLED THE WAY TO WIN ON WALL STREET NOW. After looking at the list one name surprised me but consider how the UpFRONT money in this PARTICULAR to make deals work didn't surprise so much as how much to whose name is on the list. Here are the Top 10 Athletes:

Athlete Sport Income ($mil)

1. TIGER WOODS GOLF 105 DAMN ELIN NORDEGREN
2. PRETTY BOY FLOYD BOXING 65
3. BLACK MAMBA BASKETBALL 48
4. LEFTY MICKELSON GOLF 46
5. DAVID BECKHAM SOCCER 43.7
6. ROGER FEDERER TENNIS 43
7. KING JAMES BASKETBALL 42.8 POOR CLEVELAND
8. PAC MAN PACQUIAO BOXING 42
9. ELI MANNING FOOTBALL 39.9
10.*TERRELL SUGGS FOOTBALL 38.3 WTF? NFL CONTRACT

What surprises THE BLUEDUDE about this list is not the money but whose getting the money. For starters Pretty Boy Floyd claims he doesn't even bank his money its all under his mattress. David Beckham has changed the views on soccer in this country since he arrived LOL FOOLS. Forget Cleveland but OHIO needed King James be fore he needed them. And Terrell Suggs man RAY RAY has made a lot of guys look really happy and not taking anything away from suggs but DAMN. Flacco will get $200 million and part of the Chesapeake Bay.

*** OF NOTE Suggs now you have all that scrilla go get your mouthpeice fixed.............. GO STEELERS...................You ever seen him, WOW, him and SAM I AM CASSELL GOT TO BE RELATED............Checkout this FORBES ISSUE and the rest of the 40 Teams and Players it is a cool list and read it with your debit/check card because we all need a little luck in our lives
